yepp. also looking at lowering also. just not sure what or which springs. pretty much they all look the same. coilovers would be good but more then i need. (no road racing). and could use that cash for a charger.. ! let me know what you go with!

Coilovers r too much for me lol .ima just go with h&r 1.4f 1.3r I heard their pretty stiff but I don't mind I'm going for looks more but if I was going to go for ride quailty I'd probably go with bmr 1.2 lowering springs I've heard nothing but good things about them .as for what I'm getting quoted for having them installed is about $300 which I think is pretty damn high
I got those quotes from shops around my house |

i have seen some coilovers at around 1k and it does make me ponder on the performance vs cost. there was a deal, springs and a sway bar for like 7-800..

There are several places that sell them. They are also located in SoCal so if you ever need them worked on or rebuilt you would have easy access. Prolly cost the same or maybe even less to mount them up.
Here is the cheapest place I know of or call Megan coil overs and see how much they would charge to sell and install them. http://www.1xracing.com/megan_racing.../i-519832.aspx

I agree but several have said there were a lot better than just springs and OP said he is doing it for looks only. These would be great for him and give him the ability to raise or lower it however he likes.

if you're looking for a great lowering spring, i suggest Pfadt springs, these actually increase the performance of the vehicle rather then just lowering the car... I have them on my 1le currently (just to see how they performed on the road course before we move to coilovers), if you want to go for a ride in my car stop bye.
