    Check out the lowering tread Bio made. If your not wanting to buy at least springs don't bother lowering it..cheap way is to cut springs but this is not recommended and your asking for trouble.

    Heat your springs with a torch and have a few people sit on it while it cools off. Did that to my buddy's beater car back in high school.

    PS - that wasn't a good idea but the car was lower.

    Different prices for different springs an different drops etc. I used DNA springs before and didn't feel any difference between the SSC I once owned. I usually always recommend SSC > DNA simply based off of a more reputable company and more people have had SSC but since your trying to do things on the cheaper end you really can't go wrong. Might of fact I have a set of DNA springs laying around if your interested.

    After being low, I'd never buy springs again.

    All the coilover hype is totally worth it.

    But on a WBody...not so much.

    Cut the springs then.

    That's free.

    If you do go the dna springs, id support that. Ive been running them since june with no issues, they ride fine not that rough. One thing is they lower the front alot more than the rear. My front end is lower than my friend who has ebiach's could be just the strut i used. They give the car a kind of muscle stance with higher rear and lower front. Overall for 80$ you can't go wrong. But i wish i have money for coilovers, went for a ride in a gp with them and i fell in love.

    I feel like if it was lowered, and dimmed it would look nice to an extent, maybe put some dim blue behind the grill as well. Don't get me wrong, glow can look great, but I've seen way too many ricers in my area with it to consider it at this point...
