Word of caution, some shopping centre carparks(Jurong Point esp) have short slopes... Meaning, the centre part of the car will not clear the peak.. Mine is without side skirts.. Those with them, be prepared to sacrifice them... Seen a few cars "cracked" the side skirts there..

which springs u intending on getting? U referring to me? ..I'm still not sure..A few criterias though..firstly, not too expensive..the cheaper the better..Budget below $400..second, lowering muz look noticeable..thirdly not so harsh on pax... I'm still not sure..H&R maybe?..Or Apex?..Or B+G?..When the time nears, will revive this topic again..

oops. one more qn.. i got a friend coming back from US, and apparently, the eibach spring kit is selling at 224 USD in US... that will be, about 310SGD...
so, question is, for cerato, we can use the same spring kit for kia spectra 02-07 rite?
310 SGD for the eibach is good deal rite? how much to install and align?

Eibach is a good brand..Tink some bros using Eibach spent abt $500...If really can get for $300 plus can consider.. ..But is the lowering noticeable?

Nvrmind..add the PU bottomline will save ur side skirt.. Or avoid Jurong Pt...lucky I very seldom go there.. I tink can attach to existing side skirt..as long as the bottom is rather flat.. ..It's actually for Lancer..will be slightly short for Cerato..but juz a bit..Fabulous definitely have them in PU black..Solomon bros may oso hav, but it's grey, meaning most likely fibre.. ..D-Mix I dunno where.. .. I tink i will go down to Paya Ubi tmrw..oso want to go to Yap Bros to ask abt the JBT brake set..Poison valley..

For rear, u referring to the rear bottomline?..Like those on Rex?..I tink shd hav also but for rear harder to get a nice fit..

But one have to take into consideration the installation cost, shipping, authenticity and warrenty... Still i think its not too bad for the offer by AT perforamce. jemjem

Fellow bros who are planning to change their springs to H&R please take note. The reduce in height is not noticeable. Unless ur willing to let them cut the springs, then only u will find the reduce satisfactory (for me at least...). Can check out the before and after installation, of my ride at the car showroom page.

If u wanna cut ur springs, make sure the cutting is precise ie; angles are accurate etc etc... But I'm sure the mech at FK knows what he's doing...
