| i'd do it for you for a drink(small fee) if you got all the parts, can help you pick the parts if you want. Got all the tools needed and lowered plenty of cars for myself and friends. Would only take a couple of hours to do and your pretty darn close to me. Could show you what im doing along the way as well so you pick up on some stuff and learn  |
