looks mad with the rims and lower. how much did the coilovers set you back and how low can you get em to go, coz im looking for a set for my senator.
the coilovers are like $1200 new.
believe it or not they were spotted at the wreckers. looked up the price list. a complete strut was up for $37 each haha.
so pretty much the coilovers cost nothing![]()
