Remove the spring and cut a coil off with an angle grinder. I wouldn't pay a shop to do that.

What he ^^ said. You will screw all your bushings, your shocks and throw off the balance of your car by not buying springs meant for lowering. Plus it's not safe because traction will be affected too.

I got a set (2) of front Eibach springs, the Pro-Kit. Give me $20 for gas and I can meet you somewhere locally and you can have them.

Sorry no, they are for an F-Body Camaro or Trans AM. Front Springs only.

I bought them new for my '02 Camaro but I dont need them now because I am using Strange Adjustable coil overs in the front.

I got a PM from a guy who wants them so I will let him have them.
