i can get brand new ones shipped for 195 from www.groupbuycenter.com

Springs don't wear and tear...very much at all.
Why, I'd buy used springs that have been used for two years if nothing were wrong with them and they were at a good price...

Eibachs and H&R springs can be found on the net soo cheap New that buying used for anything over $100bucks any country seems too much. Kingmotorsports has most H&R's for around 149 new!

I paid $190 US dollars shipped for my eibachs, but that was very cheap they are generally $200 shipped on a groupbuy.
If I could have got 2 month old ones for like $125 I would go for them.

i still have to talk to the seller but it looks like he won't move from the 199 selling price.. and what about the shipping from canada.. anybody have any experience with that.. i know some places are charging 35 bucks just to ship within the states... wouldn't it cost more to be shipped from canada..

hey, did u check the SALE/TRADE here?
https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...threadid=18085
the guy is selling his Eibach pro-kits for only 100 SHIPPEd continental US... that means ur really getting it for less than 100, cuz u got to including the shipping ur paying for. he seems legit.. i bought my used pro-kits on www.honda-acura.net... so, trust me, i am a satisfied customer of this section... just make sure to get pics, and e-mail confirmation that the product has been sent b4 u send out your payment type, like money order, cuz he can always hold the product easily from UPS or fedex, but u can never get back the money order, u can only say u want it re-imbursed for whatever reason, like its been lost or went to wrong person or whatever.. but thats a hassle, and time consuming

i think i saw a pic of ur car earlier this month, u got the V6 right? cuz the guy in that link, dont worry, thats a recent posting this week, i dont think he's sold them yet, no indication at least, but anyway, his is a V6, so if i remember correctly, urs was V6 also, so it would fit if ur both V6, even if his was a sedan cuz i think u had the coupe, cuz springs fit only if their V6 to V6 or I4 to I4, of course thats within each generation(like for example 98-02).
