Re: Poor mans drop?

how about you just drive it as is and save up your money to do something respectable, instead of doing ghettofab **** to your vehicle. Wait maybe you can save up for a paint roller and some dutch boy then repaint your whip candy apple primer. Good luck cutting your springs exactly the same. HA HA. Seriously though save up your money and do it right.

Re: Poor mans drop?

Or buy from Ebay an M2 set for less than $100 shipped. Its prolly same manufacturer as the top spring sellers like Tein-S, Neuspeed, Eibach. Anyway, this is just my two cents and I know that it stinks just as much as what other people will tell you in this forum.

Let's hijack this thread and demand that there should be a post limit before creating threads.
