yeah they are pretty awesome. if you don't care about bling factor, i would go with some modded oem top hats. they are cheaper than the gc's and you can get more travel out of them. I think your car is lower than mine to, so it would probably benefit. either route you go will be better than its current state, thats for sure.

I think they are only $100 a set, and i don't know of anyone to make some for me using the oem tophats. Did you get front and rears?

I just happen to have a pair of stock front top hats sitting in my closet. If anyone wants them so they don't have any down time while welding the extensions, $20.

no just the fronts. i believe there is a sponsor that modifies the stock top hats and i think they charge 70 shipped for a pair.

it is something you can definitely do just as long as you have have the tools. there is a write up around here somewhere on how to do it. main thing is you measure for under the hood clearance.

I'll just get the ground control tophats and call it a day. A little over $100 is well worth a better ride. Not to say he doesn't do go work i just don't know what they look like when it's done.

They look just like stock upper shock mounts but about 1.5" taller.
