I bought H&R Sports...1.75 front and 1.5 rear...and am using stock shocks. The install on the rears was easy with the exception of 1 bolt and removing the fronts was cake. I bought spring compressors from Sears (commonly reffered to as "Widow Makers") and did the rears relatively easily. I could not compress the stock springs in the front enough and had to bring the two fronts to Midas to change them out.
Being my first time doing it the whole process took about a full day and I did it without the use of a Helms or any other manual.

So how much you guys think its gonna cost to do front and rear at a shop. And also do you think its gonna mess up my stock shocks, cause i heard i wont be able to ride too long with stock shocks if i lower the car. You guys hear anything like that?

i just swapped springs on my car...it took me a good 8 hours all by myself. not too bad i guess. i ran into a few problems though.
what you can do now is to take off your wheels and get a feel for what needs to be taken off. get familiar with your suspension.
some tips...
-have a breaker bar ready
-penatrating oil
-take off the endlinks to the rear sway bar
-have lots of patients
-if you struggle with anything, dont lose your cool, if you are like me, youll break something h:

overall its not a hard mod to do yourself.
