Good job.

For future reference, an impact wrench makes this about a hundred times easier.

How do you fit an impact wrench between the strut and the wiper cowl area? You have about 1-2 inches in there. Barely enough room for the allen key and normal wrench to fit.
The rears you can use an impact wrench, but not the front.

Unless there is access to the strut with the whole wiper cowl removes which I haven't done on these cars yet.
