I can get Whiteline gear through work so hopefully my prices should be better. I thought they were more expensive than that retail. I was just going to fit Monroe Sensatracs when I eventually lowered her.

Whiteline stuff is actually pretty reasonably priced.
I was surpised myself at the total, like 1100, for springs, shocks, and bars.
Just shop around, they are weird as with prices.
I paid LESS through Autobarn then others did going direct through Whiteline :shock:
Also, ring them during your order, cause they have retarded monkies in there warehouse.
Supposedly theres alot of f**k with wrong rubbers/no rubbers being sent, no new nuts for the shock tower, that sort of thing.
I know I was missing little things here and there, which is kind of annoying.
Hassle them!
