Sportlines look good, but that's about it. And even then, they don't always look good. I saw a trans am in person that had them and the front suspension looked loaded while it was just sitting there. It had to have had like 1 inch of suspension travel.

take the isolator and rear spring out, put some rubber hose around the first coil of the spring and re install spring without isolator. lowers the rear end about a half inch and the rubber hose prevents from metal on metal contact.

OP, car looks great!
But for all you Sportline riders, I feel for you. I know your pain. I bought my old 97 with Sportlines and hated every minute of it. I'm not one for the slammed look either, I like a little bit of drop, not ALL drop. That was one rough *** ride. I put on Hotchkis springs, and they were great! Car was totalled, and I bought my 01, and it had a ProKit. The ProKit is not quite as bad as the Sportlines, but I still immediately put my Hotchkis on it.
