Body Kits/Lowering Car
#22
That kit looks great. How much would it cost to install, and to remove (when my lease is done)? Also, was that car lowered? Someone told me I could lower my car 2 inches for around 300.00 dollars, is that true?
If I lower, is it easy to remove once lease is done? I really want to do things to my car, however, because it's leased, my options are limited. I plan on taking my car to the dealership next week, and getting the black emblems, but during December, etc. I may consider lowering it, if the price is good, and it wont cause conflict with my lease.

Just remember that you will be having to pay for everything twice so 150 to install the springs and another 150 to uninstall the springs....
Easy things to switch are body kits(sometimes), exhaust, wheels. Suspension usually needs to be done professionaly while the others you can do your self. Brakes are a no no.
For suspension, do a spring/shock combo so when they remove the suspension it's all one peice and can easily be put back on.
BTW. I just ordered a body kit today!!! Win Racing!

BadBtsz4u - Those are all add-ons...The only part that might not be is the sideskirts...I can't remember if they're add-ons or replacements.
MrFlow - Yes, it's a good looking kit that doesn't look too agressive/rice-ish...install cost is minimal and you can probably do it yourself...
As for lowering, as CSHFLW said, you'll have to pay for install and de-install...
If it's a lease, just get springs...but unless you cut the springs (which I don't recommend), you won't get a 2" drop...I think the H&R's give you a 1.5" or 1.75" at most...which should be fine...
