We'll like the title says.. I was wondering what to get. I kinda want some coilovers but for the prices I find them for I rather just get air suspension. Is there a site where I can find coilovers for not so much? maybe $600-800? I found a few of them online for about $1000-2800... I can get air ride for like $1000 so I was wondering if anyone knows where I could get some decent coilovers for not so damn much. We'll give me your opinion... (1) coilovers (2) Air suspension.
Also I am looking for window visors.. myautofasion is taking more than a month so I need to find a new site to get them.

What is your goal from the suspension, just to slam the car?
If it is just go for airbags, if you actually care about handling do coilovers or a nice spring/shock combo + sway bars.

I found these ones, but not sure if anyone has them on their car yet. They look similar to the ksport but instead of orannge it's purple.

Yes tortoise the nitrous is on. Its at a 75 shot but I do not use it. I plan to sell it. I am still not sure. Air ride does sound sick... but kinda expensive and I want to get some better wheels. I will give updates on what I will do soon.

Understandably, we all want the appearance, the ride comfort and the performance, but rank those three items in order of importance for us.
Here's why. In my estimation:
- If slighty degraded ride comfort+ improved performance > appearance = Springs + Struts
- If appearance > ride comfort and performance = Bag it
- If highly improved performance + appearance > ride comfort = Coilovers
- If ride comfort MUST BE preserved for survival = Stay Stock!

well appearance is good i just want to lower it onto some 19s but it still ride with a decent bit of comfort but it seems like i have no option lol i guess i could just go with some lowering springs on my factory struts but im not sure yet
