Ok, so everything on my car is running beautifully. There's just one main problem with the car, and that's that the shocks are pretty much on their last legs. I don't know how hard it is to do myself.. all I know is that I've never done it haha. I don't know what brand is best, or exactly what the heck I need to buy.
Also, on a slightly related note, if anyone knows about good strut bars and who I should contact that would be great. I have a VIS hood though, which will NOT go down if there's ANYTHING even slightly hitting it. So I guess I'm just trying to see if all the engine bay struts will not arch too high for my style hood. Thanks for the help in advance. --------------------  |

KYB GR2's are good struts to have. They are OEM replacement, yes, but they are warratied to be lowered up to an inch and a half, if you ever feel like dropping the car later.
