newbie question - springs

hey guys,

I got an 06 2.5i...

I'm buying lowering springs next week and i was wondering about installation. Do people normally lower it themselves or do they have it done at a shop? is it pretty tough?

you'll need a good set of tools, high mm rachet set (17mm, 19mm), a spring compressor set which you can get from kragen's or Autozone (they have loner's), a jack, some jack stands, and some extra cash to get the alignment done at the end. Where are you located in cali? I may be able to help me. You can PM me your location if you want...

it's not really a tough job, but just a tedious one, especially your first time
