Hi, I am new to the forum and need some advise. I just bought a 03 G35 2 door sport coupe but unfortunately it scrapes the speed bumps at school. The car is nice, has a nice exhaust, cold air intake, and was lowered to give it a great handling...but I have no choice and it will need to go back up. How difficult is it to replace the coils? Anyone has a used set of springs/coils for sale? ...Thanks.

Toss the stock springs/shocks on and you're good to go. Check the classifieds, someone may have some low-miles ones for cheap.

first figure out exactly what lowering set up you have(I.E. stock shocks still? what brand spring, ect...)I doubt you will have to pay anything, offer to trade some one else for stock + cash....

How low is it? you cant just go diagonally?

just drive diagonal over them like Red Coupe said. Or like go to the far side and only have one wheel go over the bump.

I'm sure someone would be willing to trade stock springs for yours....put it in the classified section. Bags require the addition of a compressor, air lines, switching relays...not the cheapest solution.

$4k with digital guages! that's installed by them, if shipped to him and installed by someone else then about $3k plus shipping, you pay to play!

I not sure if these will fit, but I have an OE set from a 2005 sedan sitting in my garage I am willing to give them to you if they will fit, I'm sure someone can chime in an let us know if they will fit or not.

All I would want is the shipping paid and anything you feel like adding, I'm in Arizona so I would have to see what it would cost to ship.

Let me know
