Reasonable Price for A-Spec springs?

Thinking of buying A-Spec kit but I want the shocks as I already have H&R springs.

What would the A-SPec springs be worth if I were to sell them?

Thanks in advance guys.

Considering H&Rs can be had for $235, I would say that price.

Fair enough, thanks buddy.
It LOOKS like I may be able to buy just the springs alone, based on what I'm seeing on the Internets...

We shall see. $150 each shock.

I'm buying A-Spec lowering kit JUST FOR the shocks.
It looks like they can be had for $150 (front) and $150 (rear).

I may not need to buy the entire kit for like 500 or whatever the hell it is.

I got confused there LOL

If you are getting what you posted, you are getting both springs and shocks.

Heavy, where can I get your avi windshield sticker?

That is great, and I wholeheartedly agree. I work with a guy who said he likes to get in the fast lane and go the speed limit, blocking other drivers who want to go faster, and keeping them from speeding as if he were helping highway safety.

I did a massive internal face palm and so very badly wanted to explain to him that it is not his duty to enforce the laws of the road or control other people's driving. I also wanted to tell him that he is actually causing more hazardous driving conditions by making people pass him on the right because no matter what he does, if someone wants to speed, they will. However, I decided to not burn any bridges and allow his ignorance to run rampant.

I feel like I have this debate daily, there are soooo many wanna be traffic cops that take it upon themselves to regulate the traffic.

I cut people no slack, if you want to be a douche and ride in the left lane I'll make you earn that imaginary badge every time.

But, no I do not own the sticker. LoL... yet.

While there are plenty of people who would like to think they are helping by controlling the speed of the left lane, I find that the majority of fools I pass on the right don't even have a clue they are being passed on the right or the dangers involved, and I think that is much worse. At least the other people are aware of what they are doing.

One of my mom's friends, who is quite spacey like most 50-60 year old white ladies I meet from my home town, was talking about her drives to Austin once. She said, "Traffic doesn't really bother me. I just put on an audio book and next thing I know, I'm there."

So you're the dumb bitch that I have to change lanes to pass on a daily basis?!?
