I can't help you with name brands but at least just stick to a name brand to be safe. MY bud just lowered a completely different car but after, shocks (if you need them) and springs, you'll run up $600-700. BTW Don't cut coils off youre existing springs, it's extremely dangerous. Just a stupid mans way of lowering his car because he's to cheap to put up the cash.
