It sounds like it. On your next pay day, pick up a set of tools at sears. It shouldn't cost you more than an arm and let

Why did you stop with at torching just the springs? Should have done the entire car afterward from the looks of it.

Wow, some of the adults are worse than my young childs friends. I mean the springs actually arent that bad when heated. He didnt cut them. Also its not like he is leaving it that way. Props , it doesnt look bad how it sits.

I would have just left it stock and waited for the megans to go on. If you ever want to go back to stock suspension or sell your OEM springs, you just devalued them and the stock struts.

But, like you said, its your car. Tinker all you want. Looking forward to seeing the megans on ur GS.
