    Car is getting some nasty suspension bounce at times, enough on big bumps to scrap the exhaust a fair bit. I am thinking of getting some KYB GR2's to stiffen the ride up & stop the bounce (assuming bounce is from blown stockers). Pretty cheap option too from ZZP for $240 for all 4. I will also be replacing the rear strut tower mounts as well. Opinions?

    Fronts were done about 10K miles ago, just a strut issue up front now i think

    Check the prices at rockauto. You will probably save a little more there than ZZP. As stated don't forget the mounts. Monroe makes some good mounts. I am not sure if you are lowered or not but you could also get some anti-pogo washers.
