just to let u kno, i bought the eibach pro-kits for $150 shipped(love the ride, and how low it is, cuz i have a front lip), and i found them for like $100 shipped even later. i have a 1998 honda accord coupe. i've bought brand new coilovers also($325 at the time), and let me say, there is no difference in quality pratically, used or new(except used there already broken in, which isnt bad necessarily), as long as they haven't been cut. take a look at some used springs, as long as u get pics, and u just have to be smart, if its on ebay, make sure they got a good seller rating or a good way to buy method, like paypal or escrow or COD, or if u buy off honda-acura or a place like hondasociety, make sure there a regular member, cuz their most likely more honest, and of course, the all good 6th sense. i bought mines off right here, honda-acura, i got pics, and the guy told me stuff about him, like he was a moderator on another forum, and he could get me references, that was more than enuff for me, plus i got a good feelin about him that he was honest. u can save urself the extra $40-50, and use it for part of the installation fee of the springs, or take ur friends out to lunch for helping u install it for free. or use it for part of ur future mods ... somethings are better bought new, that are more risky bought used like body kits(im a hypocrite, im lookin for used sideskirts and rear lip, LOL, hey, i bought my front piece new, sides and back are more likely not scratched, or exhaust systems(cuz of dents or leaks), sound system components, could be blown and u wouldnt kno)
