Depends what brand you want to get. king Springs fitted should be no more then $350. Also depends on how low you want to go, some more info is needed.

Download and have a look at the "Performance" spreadsheet that I have been putting together...it's located in the General topic and its one of the Sticky topics at the top

Cheers

Price is inversely proportional to amount lowered (ie the lower you go, the more it costs).

Lowered springs will only take you so low.
If you really want the car slammed, you could invest in a set of coil-overs, but even then they might not achieve the result your after.
Other limiting factors are your guards too

Then there's always the airbags/hydro's option, hell yeah!

You could pick up k-mac lowered springs for around $350 for the set of 4 and they make them at what ever height you want dude :wink:
You'll find most brands of springs are around the same cost :P
