I would reccomend eibach springs and koni yellow or tokico illumina.
~$500 struts ~200 springs

Good lord thats alot!!!
Autozone does sound like a cheaper alternative, but I don't think I can drop my ride using parts purchased from PepBoys and Stuff.
I've read before that cutting or heating springs is a big no no. Dropping on OEM shocks/struts is also not a good idea. So I have no choice but to use aftermarket shocks/springs. I'm more after looks and tolerable daily driving than performance. Thanks again.
