Suspension upgrade options for 96 FWD 2.8?
 
I'd like to lower the car a couple of inches, as it is stock now....complete with the "Liftkit" look.

What are my options? I'm not looking for a perfect suspension setup....more like a cheap way to lower the car. I don't know how much longer I'm keeping it.

thanks...

mine used to be a 96 2.8 stock susp. Look what bilsteins and H&R sports did.

I'm selling Eibach Pro-Kit for 2.8 FWD (more)
 
I've got an Eibach Pro-kit that I decided not to install and Bilstein Sport Shocks to go with it if interested. Eibach should lower 1.4" front and 1.3" rear. I don't have any pics but I'm sure some folks here would be willing to post. Email with questions about price, etc.

geting my euro projectors soon :)..and maybe some new style tailights if i feel frisky.
 
The color rocks though. have only seen one more this color in person since i've had it

Funny you mention that.....I agree on the color, but today...
 
I was at the dealership getting a part, looking around thinking the same thing, and what do I see??

An old lady, driving feebly, doing a 10 point turnaround in the middle of the lot, in a Car EXACTLY like ours! No RS4 Grille of course...but I had to stop and observe a moment of silence.

I'm thinking about Euros too, but I want suspension first.

Bilsteins and Eibachs. $620 shipped from Shox.com, then $200 or so to install.
