Just installed BMR springs and Koni STR.T dampers
And I love it!
The car sits perfect. It rides very good for a lowered vehicle. I want to say better than stock but that is my opinion. The ride is more firm but not as harsh. It absorbs bumps/rough road very well. I didn't get a chance to push it hard through any corners or get some pics because it was dark when we finished the install.
I highly recommend this setup.

Thanks Jay and the Hypermotive team for your input and great customer service. And thanks everyone on here as well. I can't wait for the sun to come out so I can really see what it's all about!

Anthony..thanks for your words of wisdom!
Now I'm at a crossroads. I am getting the windows tinted next week, but do I hold off on mods for a while or do I order up the catless h pipe that I've been on the fence about? If I do the catless H pipe then the next logical mod is porting/polishing intakes.
I think I'll end up holding off on performance mods for a month or two. That will give me time to run it down the drag strip and see where it's at so I have some room to improve with more mods.
It's just so hard to keep it stock.

No photos yet, it's been cloudy and rainy here the past couple of days. The weather should be nicer to tomorrow afternoon I can post some.
I used 05-09 struts with GT500 mounts. I thought about using 13-14 struts and re-using the mounts but I didn't want to run the risk of the mounts coming apart during the process and then having to put them back together knowing they'll make noise.

****! You just reminded me to get an alignment, I've been crazy busy at work. The steering wheel is straight and the car drives straight as an arrow, but there is a bit more negative camber. I will get the alignment checked this weekend, I'm assuming I'll need camber bolts.
1 inch in front and 1.25 inch in rear. Those are the spring specs, I haven't actually measured.
