Hey everyone, thank you for the help this past week in my previous post. As promised here are some pictures of before and after. Sorry they are crappy with my iphone. First is with Daystar 1.5/2.5 second are with OME 885/895 and Bilsteins all the way around(front set at lowest setting)
I am very happy with the ride. Firmer but not jarring at all. Definitely has more of a tighter sports car suspension feel. A lot less dive when breaking, a lot less roll in corners.

Looks nice! Hard to tell by the photos but is the front higher than the back? In the center photo it looks even.
 
It's that front diagonal angle that makes it look like that. Front is actually .5" lower than the back. I hope it stays that way, if not I'll put some spacers in the rear. Right now it's about as close to level as I want it, I'd actually prefer about an inch of rake
 
Hard to tell how much lift overall since I didn't measure before the daystar lift, but here are the overall measurement differences from Daystar lift to OME/Bilstein lift.

From center of wheel to bottom of fender:
Driver Front before: 21" After: 23.25"
Driver Rear before: 21.25" After: 23.75"

Pass Front Before: 21.5" After: 23.25"
Pass Rear before: 22.5" After: 24"

The results make perfect sense as the driver front/rear have top out/trim spacers installed to level it. I'm assuming it will settle a little. Overall very happy with the new lift. My old springs/shocks were definitely sagging.
