You just answered your own question and made your own decision without noticing. Quit your confusion and buy the springs already.

Dude, just drop the car! Springs are the most affordable choice and your car will look better. I asume you've never modded a car before since this is apparently a big deal for you. spend the $200-$250 in springs and do it already. your not building the motor or boosting your car. its really not that complicated. If anything buy Birels springs! I think he has Eispeilers hes selling. if you have stock wheels you will not need to do anything to the fenders etc...

Nope, I have a nice list and will look into cost. I think i will look for springs that have a greater drop like 2 inches or so .... there have been like 5 to 6 different springs that people use and everybody says how great they are .... so i have to look into it ...

i just spent like $1200 on my sound system so i will buy it in a month after i save up some money .....

For $1200 i hope your able to say you have King Kong in the trunk of your car trying to get out because i spent $705 on mine and i can honestly say that i got a descent setup with Pioneer everything.

Pioneer Head Unit $280
Pioneer Amp $100
Pioneer 3 way door speakers $60
Pioneer 12" speaker with custom trunk box $180
Modifry DCI unit $55
Wiring Kit $30

Unless you have a hardtop on your car your really not going to notice much of the sound quality in a soft top IMO.
