Has anyone lowered a G35X?

I'm just wondering if the component for lowering a G35 RWD are the same as lowering a G35X. If anyone has done it, what did you use? Any pictures?

I lowered mine with the Eibach kit. I have pics on my website (link below).

Any cambre issues with using the Eibach kit to lower your X? I am thinking of lowering mine in the spring. Also is it just an 1" drop, since the suspension on the X is supposed to be 1" higher than the RWD sedan. So does the Eibach drop it a total 2" ?
How is the ride quality compared with stock.

Here's from the original post after I got it done. I believe the camber ends up being negative 1 degree or so all the way around. As for ride height, here are the measurements from my post after I had it done:
I just got the Eibach pro-kit installed last week, click on the link in my sig to see pics.

Found the numbers of before and after the spring install. These measurements were taken with the stock wheels/tires installed:

Location: Before | After
Drivers Front 28 3/16 | 26 5/8
Drivers Rear 27 3/4 | 26 1/8
Pass. Front 28 3/8 | 26 7/8
Pass. Rear 28 1/16 | 26 1/2

These were taken right after the install, may be slightly different now that they've settled

Actually, the X is one CENTIMETER or .4 inches higher than the sedan.
