    Search the suspension thread.

    There is a sticky with all the info you need and pictures aswell.

    Few people do coilover's because of cost. 1.1k +

    Struts and drops springs are way more popular.

    would it look good: coilovers have the ability to be adjusted for a specific ride height. i dont know if it would look good where you'd set them.

    however, the true reason for coilovers is so you can corner weight a car for better handling, not adjusting the ride height to where you like it. 80% of people with coilovers apply them incorrectly. but then again, you can't get that low on a spring/strut setup, so maybe they are applying them correctly in a different way? hm, that's another debate entirely.

    i like the idea of coilovers, much more flexible for setting up the car how you want, but as cam said, you are going to be taken for a ride on cost unless you can build them on your own.
