about 500$ the most. you could do it your self and you would save a lot of money. its so easy to change your shocks and springs. its not that complicated like it looks like. i could do it for you i would charge you cheaper, instead of you paying a lot of money.

what type of suspension are you going to run? if you have koni shocks, its going to take a little extra just because you have to modify your stock struts

really im not very sure...im just thinking about lowering the car and making it handle very well. to be honest, i am very impotent when it comes to knowledge about cars and their parts and i dont even know the difference between shocks and struts and coilovers lol
