Next list items are wheel spacers, replace lower control arm bushings, sway bar links, and engine/trans tunes. Probably going to repaint wheels this summer when the sun is out here in Denver.

I've never had a vehicle become more bouncy after installing coilovers...would getting higher spring rates be a better choice? Just curious, have you tried dampening the struts opposite of your setup now, going lower in the front and higher in the rear?
Doing just that was exactly what my e34 needed to get it from feeling like it was hoping down the freeway.
Also, if you didn't get the adjustable camber top hats from BC, I'd definitely recommend getting some adjustable upper control arms from FCP Euro.
