Default Coilover Question

Hey All,

So i put skunk 2 springs on my whip with some brand new oem spec KYBs. and im satisfied with the back drop. I just dont like the front. Its still a little too high for me. So i was wondering about just buying some cheap ebay front coilovers to drop the front down a little more.

So the question is...Since i have new shocks, it wont be such a big deal to put ebay coilovers on the front right? Or should i just spend the extra 100 or so bucks and buy 2 skunk 2 front coilovers?

Thanks in advance.
Darrell

i love ebay coilovers. the ride is a wittle bumpy but if you have good shocks along with it, then it should ride fine.

buy something nice. cheap parts are a waste of money. the quality sucks. i have omni power full coilovers, the ride is awesome. and my sig is low, but it could go about 2 inches lower..... quality is everything. to me atleast.

you dont want to buy them and they not be what you want... then you have to spend more money to buy them and put them on if you dont do your own work... you get what you pay for
