Rep Power: 0 I installed Gold-Line springs on my car and after mmm 2 month I still think that that's the best choice I could have made!!!!!
Look the drop on my signature...and no need for me to put some camber kit!!!
Ride is greaaaatt with a good drop !
Gold-Line all the way!!
But I'm still dreaming of putting some bags on my car.... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] Bags are still the best thing you can think about when talking about lowering a car!!!

Rep Power: 0 BAH!!! forget bodykits [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
im sitting 4" off the ground with my groundcontrol-which are by far the best and tightest ride through corners! which means no fingers can fit in the front and the back is Tucked!
it can get a bit bumpy but man everyone told me the ride was going to be CRAP!!! NOPE i love em!
i paid $800 installed at Brantford Honda and plus my warranty if my struts go! they were the cheapest by far
no complaint on my behalf!
trust me man-get coilovers..... if u are unsatisfied with the drop ADJUST THEM
when u buy springs-u may not like tha drop!
my rear tires are tucked! i love it!
and as for camber kit-going with 18's is a definate! esoecially for the back! dont worry bout the fronts for the camber kit!
hope this helps!
p.s dont buy cheap CRAP! you get what u pay for!!!! dont buy RACTIVE-they're JUNK! GET

Rep Power: 282 you got ground controls for $800???? WTF???

Rep Power: 0 i found it farely decent!
sorry if i wasnt clear! yup 800.00 CDN!
hey that wasnt that bad-i also get 3 yr warranty for struts!
yeah im still on stock struts!
i priced them out from LOW LIFE CUSTOMS!
750CDN not installed! so which is the better deal?
