springs installed !

all I can say is wow.. I got the eibach prokit and it is fairly noticable ( im still on stock wheels ). but the handling is a lot better, very little body roll on turns now. Last night I showed my friend and went around a sharp ass curve pretty fast and he was yelling what the **** are you doing dude then he said whoa these are ****in badass after we got done with it
well I think they are worth it. I paid 210 shipped for the springs and 150 for installation ( it took the mother ****ers 6 hours to do it but they were cool )

I just found someone that's selling them 195 shipped fedex. It will cost me about 40 dollars cheaper to install.

the ride is a little bumpier... but I have only really noticed on speed bumps... they like give you whiplash almost but its so worth it, being able to hit turns going that fast and have that good of handling

installation is going to be fairly expensive b/c its a long job...
about 200 scrilla is the most you should pay. I only paid 150 b/c they misquoted me, the thought i only wanted to do one end ? haha yeah lower end ... anyways just giving the headsup on installation costs
