Na I paid $32.00 shipped for both... Not bad I thought... PFYC.com have them for $100.00 plus shipping... Unreal....

Well, If there stock fine... I think they look 100 x better then that crap I had before... Next looking into lowering the car what does that pertain to... anyone FYI!

Hey,

I like my M-Tec wipers ... so don't mess with my silver and black color scheme... I didn't ask about those....


So about lowering my car... whats the process?

buy springs of your choice
buy struts (not necessary, but recommended)
install springs yourself or a shop.
Get car aligned.
Drive off happy.

** Since you replied....what would the postive vs. negative about strut upgrade?

curious because I think I found a good set of springs...and a family member owns a oil change/ etc place who does everything for me at no cost... You also said alignment? whats the story with that?

i didnt get new struts or an alignment, 20K later and still straighter than ever... oh, and it rides perfect... rent the spring compressor from Autozone, or loan a tool... its real easy... sorry about the wipers, they just arent my style, and if its in the pict you post, its free game!

pros:
looks better
handles better

cons:
rougher ride (depending on the brand of springs)
PITA if you ever have creaking, screaching, clunking, banging noises.
