Checked out pricing on lowering springs today. Found some I want to buy on the P garage, but can't find any shops that will install them for a decent price.

(diy isn't an option. I have no way to lift the car and no spring compressor.)

Hmm, pretty good. I'll be doing my shopping next paycheck, so I'll PM you then if I decide to get some.

What are you doing with the brakes? I found another one of the pad spreader springs chillin on the floor in my garage so I should do something about that.

I should also install front sway bar bushings. Note that I didn't say replace my existing ones, as they are no longer there. One went missing, and I removed the other on Sunday.. needless to say it's an extremely noisy ride as the sway bar is still attached. ... I refuse to buy new endlinks just because I have to change the bushings haha.
