depends on your road conditions. obviously if you live somewhere with huge potholes and steep driveways, i wouldn't doubt that you'll be scraping up your exhaust.

I've only scrapped once and that was when I was back in my old home state of Mississippi. Driving over some jacked up roads there.

I have EiBachs btw.

The road can be bad in certain areas out here in nyc! steep driveways are also around lol.. i am trying to get the coilovers springs becasue i heard those are the best to buy without messing up you car. this is a hard decsion here lol i love the exhaust sound maybe i get the exhaust and forget about the lowering kit? or get a CAI and springs

Exhaust and springs, best bet IMO to start off.

+1. i'd go coilovers though

there's always a threat of scraping, be it the front end or exhaust when you lower. The driveways here are pretty steep in some places, but if you know how to "crabwalk" (essentially, using an aggressive angle of attack on speed bumps, driveways, etc) your car, you'll be fine.

I have the greddy catback elite, i'm lowered on eibachs. It scrapes sometimes but the roads and s*** around here are very s***.
