What the heck shocks/springs do I have? I bought the car (98 SS) last fall and haven't had the wheels off til this week. I noticed that the car has black springs that say Eibach on them and orange-ish shocks. Are these both stock on my car, or were they replaced? The reason I ask this is because the car doesn't really sit very low and I want to lower it.

The car is way up in the air right now...I'm just finishing up my header install. It really just doesn't look as low as other Pro-kitted cars, but it must just be me. Here's the best I can do, I don't really have ANY decent pics of the car yet...

Yeah, the car rides kind of stiff, which I would expect from a lowered car. I did some research and it seems like the only way to go with the shocks would be to get some sort of adjustable shock, Koni, revalved Bilsteins. I'll have to save up for those though...they're expensive.
