Sweet. Yeah to even it out, get the poly isolators for the front but dont use anything for the rear. Now that your car is lowered, there are a few things you can do to correct your suspension geometry. And its not really all that expensive. I would recommend a set of LCA relocation brackets. They are around $65 and will fix the angle of your rear lower control arms. This will prevent any wheel hop too. Another thing I would recommend is a Baer bumpsteer kit for the front. Its around $99 and will allow you to fix the angle of your tie rods.

yea i could have taken them out but i heard if u take the isolators out that it makes your car really sqweak bad and it actually already does with the new springs in. So i guess i will leave them in for now and if i happen to put speakers in the hatch maybe it will level it out with the subs and all... but yea i love them anyone else have these?
