i got the 99 TL, was thinking about dropping the car because it looks weird sitting high. if i wanted to drop my car how would i go about this? which parts would i need to purchase to do this? i live in the windy city which snows ALOT! i would the option to raise it back up when needed. if you kind fellows can guid me through some parts would be nice.

would i be able to use any parts from a 01,02,or 03? or maybe type-s parts? on my 99...

 

All suspension components are the same across the 99-03. And dont worry about having to raise it back up because of snow. I have yet to have a problem up here being lowered.

 

sure, but it would provide you with the same stock setup..
not sure what you're trying to achieve

 

ok i was just asking about using 01-03 parts because i see alot more parts for those years then the 99. i just want to drop a couple inches not too crazy. i still have stock rims for now, i know it will look a little dumb but im trying to catch up with you guys lol.

also i park in a open lot i have no garage so i dont know if snow being under your car is bad for it! im guessing it is?

 

i was looking at these. will these do the job??
do i have to buy an extra pair? by the look of the pic it looks like 1 piece lol maybe im wrong..

If you get coilovers, remember to clean them every so often. Areas that get snow and salt on the roads will cause the threads to seize.

 

After ruining a pair many years ago from the sand and salt i sprayed them with Chain wax (designed for motorcycle chains) before winter and throughout to help protect them. I highly doubt id run coilovers ever again unless it was a complete H&R setup.

 

wil these be decent for my 99?

yep.
tiens do not come with top hats, tho.
you will either have to swap your stock top hats over, or buy 4 new top hats.
