This my new 09 Tidewater Blue Pearl. Pardon my cell's camera grainy picture. I will retake them as soon as I pick 'em from the lot. Paperwork is done. All I have to do is hand my DP check and they'll hand me my keys

Congrats and welcome to FitFreak! You're one of the rare Tidewaters. I saw my first Tidewater 2 weeks ago at the dealer. Nice.

Here are some pics of my SSM GE8. It is lowered on Tanabe NF210 springs, thanks to JDM_DOHC_SiR 
The drop is slightly lower than 1" and it is a perfect drop!!! The ride is a little more stiff than stock (more than the advertised 5% stiffer than stock advertised on Tanabe's website -_^) but still smooth for an aftermarket spring! The ride is NOT bouncy at all, still riding on stock struts/shocks with trimmed bumpstops. I'll list the alignment specs after the pics...
Excuse my crappy camera phone pics...
Another cool thing is that I got my alignment pretty close to stock specs!!!
Front left = Camber .2; Caster 2.5; Toe .02
Front right = Camber .1; Caster 2.9; Toe .02
Rear left = Camber -0.9; Toe .26
Rear right = Camber -1; Toe .28
The only issues is the rear toe, as that can't be adjusted without some type of correction kit. But the rear toe isn't off too bad (about .08 out of specified range of 0.00 to .20). Just thought I'd share
