Default Skunk2 Sport Shocks And Skunk Lowering springs

Hey guys so I just bought a 2000 EM1. I want suspention to be my first mod because my car looks like its lifted right now haha. Anyway I can get the skunk2 sport shocks with lowering springs for 350 shipped to my door brand new. Im on a budget and 350 is looking really good to me. Is this a decent dd setup and a good setup for the money. I know the ride will be bumpy just like all aftermarket suspension so i am aware of that. I know skunk2 is a good company so I know im not really buying crap. Anyone have experiance with this setup... How does it ride.... How is the handleing..... let me know your imput thanks.

personally I have KYB gas adjust in front and non gas adjust in back with eiback (sp) springs all around.. very nice set up but I think a little more expensive and a little stiffer ride.... but for the money that sounds pretty good

Does anyone have pics of an ek dropped on skunk sports and lowering springs? I really want to see what it looks like. And to update the post I just ordered the setup. I got an even better deal I got the shocks and springs NIB shipped to my door for $340. For that price im stoked and Im hoping that this is a great buget DD setup.

im in for some pics too, i got the springs laying up in my room right now, and dont know if i wanna sell them or keep them yet. im sure i could probably find by searching, much like anyone else, but hell to make my post useful, just do it the cheaper way, and start dating a fat girl with a few fat friends, your car will sit nice and low!

I'm running this set-up on my hatch... for the price, it is a good set-up. For daily driving, the springs are too stiff for me, but, i've already gotten use to the all the bouncin' around.
