I purchased a set for my GD3. Originally bought it with swift lowering springs and decided to upgrade to coilovers. I’m not so sure how to properly install this kit.

The first thing is the rear suspension. Are the black rubber seats that are on the springs re used?

for the front I had to remove the nut that holds down the spacers on the strut in order to get more thread to install on the shock tower.

did any one else with a similar coil over had to do any thing different?
