    Angry $600 for shocks?

    i was gonna get some progress springs and i was gonna leave the shocks stock for awhile until some company made shocks for our cars. i've read that our stock shocks will go out after awhile and then i read somewhere that it costs $600 bucks for a set of aftermarket shocks...i may be new to the scene, but if that's really how much they cost, then i dont' think i can afford to lower my car :(

    someone tell me some good news!

    Those are koni shocks.
    The other ones(when available) should be cheaper than that.
    plus, konis are adjustable.

    Mmmmm adjustable koni yellows....damn you 02silversihb!!!! :)

    I have stock shocks on progress springs and it's not too bad. Definitely alot more rough than stock tho. Can't wait for some cheaper aftermarket shocks to come out that don't require modification

    yeah, koni is it for now. I payed 531 shipped from www.importhorizon.com
    The modification isn't really that hard, just time consuming. I was scared at first, but once I got the shocks and saw what needs to be done to the stock ones, I started hacking away :D
