do it. it will look cooler.

plus you basically have full height adjustment, because you can always cut another coil!

dude!!! ride stock until you can save up money for quality coilovers. quality is a hundred times better than cheaply modifying your car.

Buy lowering springs from anywhere for cheap too/

ifyou cut yours springs you might as well cut your wrists too, that way you can kill two birds with one stone... youself and your car.

Buy some cheap springs until you can afford some silk roads or something.

i'm guessing all your friends have done it and you are thinking about following? when youre done with cutting them make sure you put a huge muffler and giant spoiler.

not many people know this, but the only way to effectively and reliably cut your coils, is if you have a decent sized alum. wing. all that downforce will give you mad grip in your hoop-D while still lookin fly
