I was thinking AM. I want the sfc's indefinitely but I would really like springs. I was thinking H&R's but I do not want to have to get CC's and aftermarket shocks and struts atthis point. That's why I am thinking of running the Pro Kit. What does everyone think?

He is correct! MM's are the way to go and you will get good instructions. The MM full length units are VERY good pieces. PC is a nice detail, but if you can paint the bare units, that will save you a few bucks. Use those dollars to have a knowledgeable tech weld on your connectors. It is NOT a no brainer to get these absolutely correct. They need to be installed by a quality tech. Be sure to paint the exposed metal under the car at the time of installation. You will have to remove existing paint from under there to get a good weld, and repainting those areas is a must.

You will notice a different once they are installed!

GOOD LUCK!

Prokits SUCK A$$!!! i hate mine!!! they dont sit level and the rear sags. If the front was as low as the rear, i'd be happy. But no, the stance sucks. Go h&r's and get the cc plates. Shocks and struts arent a must but they are nice to have. They will give you better ride quality and should be in the plans for down the road because the lower suspension will wear them out quicker but arent necessary right now. Go with H&R's or at least sportlines.
