TECHRON: How much did u spend on parts? and I was wondering how much did u lower your vehicle?
Do you scrape on every driveway entrance? I got the same year model and color as your. Thanks man.

doesnt really scrape unless its a bad driveway. I paid $205 for the struts, all four, KYB GR-2. $132 for the Eibach's (I work at place where i get eibachs at cost) So maybe like $200 for you. and $30 for an alignment.

Mines lowered and I live in canada, where pot holes have their own address. No question the car looks better. The price you pay is a stiffer ride,(as in bone jarring/ CD skippin) more interior squeeks than a barrel full of mice. Would I go back? Well I I need to do is look at the car and the answer is..Nope.

Ive got a pretty steep driveway entrance but even after installing the GMPP koni kit, I dont scrape anything. No pogo either. Here are a few quick pics. Sorry for the dirty car but it rained all the way home :rolleyes: Stock springs/shocks at about 30k miles Here emergency brake is prob on so the back may look higher. Not sure.  and after with GMPP springs/koni strut kit.  Here you can see the stock grill I painted light bronzemist (cant find dark bronzemist in spray)
