Sounds like a really good deal if it includes labour.

Sounds good to me. I heard the springs were a PITA to install. Make aure the HIDs don't throw errors.

you should be able to get it down to 600 even. if your in southern California, i know a shop for CHEAP!

price will depend on brand of HID kit and region so you really should post what city or at least state you're in. In socal, that's on the more expensive side, whereas in other parts of the country, it's a good deal.

as for making a difference, it really depends on what you want. Sure it does drop the car, but for some, it's not enough of a drop so they go super sports, or just get coilovers. What kind of stance are you looking for?

damnnit this deal is in so cal ... Fullerton/Anaheim to be exact and it'll be mcculloch bulbs in the top and mcculloch kit for the fogs.... i originally wanted supersports however i heard that if you have passengers in your car it rubs .. so that a big no no ... and AZN 300 i read on a forum long time ago that you or your uncle or something had a shop that vinyls out the crome trim around the windows somewhere in socal for like 60 bucks.. where is the exact place? is that the place where i can get my grille done too(like yours?) i want to go. and since 650 is expensive for the droppin with full hid's where should i go somewhere near us??? and if mccullochs are bad what hid kits and bulbs should i go with ??... i am going for the 8000k look! please help me!! thankssss in advanceee

Springs go for around $300. Go with DDM HIDs which you can get for $50 so $100 total. That's $400 in parts. Everything else is install and really should only take an hour to get all of that installed, but shops will probably charge you two hours unless you know the shop well enough that they won't pad their manhours. Figure $80/hour and you'll sitting at under $600.

$650.00 for parts and labor sounds a very reasonable and John does a very good job.
