well I think ground controls + koni shocks + labor (unless u do it yourself) are going to cost around a grand.

thats around the price of b&g coils or some tein coilovers. also the koni front are only inserts. this means you will have to rip apart your stock strut to install the konis.

Good luck!

go w/ the Tein Flex or the JIC FLT-A2's...both can be had for roughly 1500$ nowadays...roughly 200$more than the SS..well worth it, much better than getting adjustable coilovers but using stock shocks still...

Well just remember you get what you paid for.

If you got the cash go with the Tein Flex and be happy, or you can go with the new Tein Basic dampener which runs for 750.00. Not as good as the Flex but its better then getting a regular coilover and shock.
Good luck
