Curious, how/where did you order the springs?

Check the part number on the G80 speings from H&R and the picture on redline360 (H&R is not listing anything on their website for the G87 and as of about 10 days ago, was still in R&D with no timeframe on release). Not saying they couldn't have released the part but I would want definite confirmation. I would confirm the H&R part number with Redline you are getting.

They fit, I reached out to a few people, one person is already running them, hence the picture I posted.

Yes, they may fit but not made for the G87 is another story. They were aware of the issues with shock blowout on the G80 which is why they were still in R&D. Just wanted you to be aware...

Correct! I’ve read all that stuff, but I’ll keep everyone posted with my experience! I’m pretty confident to be honest.

Make sure you keep all stock parts, including any nuts, bolts or washers you replace when installing the H&Rs.

Oh I will! I did when I installed the springs on my F82.

Broooo!! I feel your pain! I just washed my ZB blue M2 this weekend and it was a pain in the arse!! I had to re-wash the doors and fenders and then clean them again with a detailing spray lol My rear bumper quarter panel is still dirty : / need to ceramic coat I feel like to help with keeping clean. And don’t get me started in the wheels 🤣🤣

My ZB will be getting ppf and ceramic coated same week as delivery for this and obviously protective reasons. They do the wheel faces too which I did on my current car and helped, just wasn't sure this time around if I'd be keeping the oem wheels but figured may as well for however long I do keep em.

I've ground 2nd twice now, once today during a launch. (First time during a launch). I also ground 4th once.

Something I'm doing wrong from time to time I assume, but looking forward to yours (or others) CDV delete reports.

Need to shift more slowly and carefully.

Sucks that it happened to you. I felt horrible

I also felt stupid for racing a Tesla at the light… the M was quicker (it was a Model 3), but that’s their show, I’ll not engage again…

Yeah I have been focuses on quick "but slow" shifts because of this, but during launch, my brain just said "SHIFT FAST" and hit a grind. Got it to go though, still fucked my 0-60. I suspect that's what happened first time Matt Maran gave my car the beans. There's definitely something to the CDV, it's just frustrating to me that it's not a self bleeding clutch hence my hesitation. That said, I'm going to pick up one of those power bleeders if/when I decide to do it.

(The Tremec in my Challenger was self bleeding and CDV delete was much easier.)

Is that matte PPF or are my eyes lying to me?

Its not your eyes (unless I need to worry about mine, as well). The picture at the gas station looks like stealth ppf or a matte/satin/frozen finish.
