Welcome mate, really liking the wheels.
Lowering should cost no more than $600, even using eibachs.

welcome mate.

in regards to lowering. check with your insurance company how low they will allow. if its only 30mm the eibach prokit will give the car a nice stance(if you can go lower go the sportlines) and you will be able to stay with stock shocks if on a budget but worth spending a bit extra to get new shocks put in at the same time.

Hey guys, I am also new :)

Will introduce myself when i find my USB cable for the camera.

What shocks do you recommend to go with the Pro-Kit springs?

Koni's are very good. It depends on how much you want to spend...

IN the appropriate section, there'll be a "new thread" button
Ie i'm guessing your first one will be in the members introduction section.
