Default I am a shox.com *****.

I recently posted about a sagging driver's side... end's up springs and struts need to be replaced. In lieu of OEM, I found Bilstein Sports and an Eibach Pro-Kit here: http://www.shox.com/ Lowest prices, great customer service and the parts should be here in 7 days, even with free shipping. Just thought I'd share.

He's posting a success story, not spamming. No need to get overly pissed at the guy.

But his other post is for a sagging suspension. If it turns out to be spam, it'll be locked.

In order to remain in good standing with the members of this forum, I had better step in. First, I am not associated with any developer, distributor or retailer in any way, shape or form. I buy my parts one leg at a time just like everyone else. And they do cost me an arm and a leg, which is why I am sharing the shox.com info. They saved me money and helped me with straight answers. If you already have a parts person, ignore the post. If not, check them out. I do not get any reward either way.

And Jstans84, you say you do not trust me? I am of the Brotherhood of the Yellow Footprints, Uncle Sam's Misguided Children, 0311, 2/5, 1990-1994, Semper Fi and keep your head down.

thanks for the link, we appreciate it but usually when we see a low post count (yours is three) and a post like this (advertising a certain website), we usually think, spam.

welcome to honda-tech btw.

Welcome to the site. It is always nice to know who has good service and who to stay away from.

2/5 was the BLT that was with me when I was on the 31st MEU out in Okinawa back in '06.

A few miles on the new set-up so I thought I'd share. Everything you'd expect from Bilstein and Eibach. Not too low, not too stiff. Want to upgrade your suspension without dropping your car or your wallet? I would recommend this approach.

Still sounds a bit like a shameless plug to me...

But i stand to be corrected if OP sticks around and posts about anything else.

Unfortunately, that doesn't look lowered at all.

Appearing "lowered" and actual performance are two very different things

I much rather have my car handle well than be sacked beyond recognition and scrape everywhere I go.

Bilsteins will be my shock of choice when I go to replace mine. Prokits are great springs, but if you're looking for a "lowered look", you need to go elsewhere.

My $0.02, good setup
