Default GMPP Suspension Kit

http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/results...ber=pk12456148

I was checking this out. I want my car to handle a lot better, without paying a lot of money. For $120, this seems like a steal.

I want to eventually get the Koni struts and lower the car, but that is a bit out of my price range.

Does this look like a good deal?

Nothing on there for the Bonneville. Sorry.

I might end up getting this in the future. Maybe I will throw in a rear strut tower brace.

id say that is a damn good deal. EAch of those parts are probably $50 at least from a dealer. If you arnt sure look them up on gmpartsdirect.com. I have seen lowered GPs before, they look NICE!

I don't know if it'* any lighter. That would be really sweet if it was.

Looking back at it, the suspension swap I did, that shoulda been before the exhaust....

It just makes the car so much more responsive and fun to drive.

And i'm haveing reservations about the exhaust...
