Car looks nice, I actually quite like the black.
Please don't crash this one, you drove the 200 like a tool, and clearly didn't slow down too much in the 500, let's hope you've learnt now.
Wow, 18's....
I can only echo TEG's comments, smallers wheels really are the way forward, whether it takes you a week or 3 months to realise it, you will.
I did.
My first car was almost exactly the same as yours (although the darker red) and I put 17's on it at first. After I fitted some Ph2...
Very nice car for the mrs, liking yours too but I imagine the wheels would look 10x better in person, black never comes out on anything other than seriously hi res photos.
I've never ran Koni's so I have no idea I'm afraid, but having springs that are effectively too long for your shock would undoubtedly cause the shock to be less effective.
As Jamie says, alignment checks are cheap enough, I'd get that done first maybe.
IIRC, there's two Koni shock types, shorter and standard?
If you've got shorter shocks, and standard length springs, I'm going to guess that the dampers are currently doing 0 as they are fully extended, and the car is just bouncing around like mental on the springs.
Either that or you've...
I can't find it either mate, I have a feeling it was just a thread with some pictures as opposed to an actual guide.
If you need help finding it etc, just post up in here.

Very tidy first car that is mate, most people on here normally recommend colour coding (which yours already has done), lowering, some tidy wheels and an RS grillie.
Depending upon budget I'd be putting an RS grille, (the front black grille just below the bumper, the Renault Sport Clio has a...
Pics are working now... they look brilliant, although if it were me, I'd have done them the brightest possible silver.
Who did them for you? You're not that far from me ;)
This has happened about 5 times to me since moving house :(
Meguaris Scratch X is pretty much bang on, it does as well as a by hand product can IMO.
The headlight will need wet and dry, then polish etc.
Get yourself a meguaris polish foam pad, then use the scratch X, finish with some SRP
This last picture here:
See how much of the inner arch is visible, some 20mm or so hubcentric spacers sort that right out.
I've not current got the standard wheels fitted, but when I put them back on, it'll be the first thing I do.
It really improves the look of the car, not to mention...
