Hi everyone, can someone help me to find a garage that can cut my car's springs? I want a clean job. I know this is stupid, but i'll take the risk. I plan to cut the springs by 1-2" drop. TIA!

if you think you are going to save some money, you are wrong! this will screw up your Shocks within 1 month of driving which will cost atleast 1000 to replace, plus another 500-800 for new stock springs and bushes after 2 months when the car becomes un-driveable due to the Terrible ride.

If you are on a budget and can't buy brand new Coilovers, go on BMW road and find any Suspension shop and ask for 'Racing jumper' they will get you used Coil-overs, you only have to invest about 800-1000dhs for the whole setup, Compared to about 2000dhs in repairs all just to bring your car back to STOCK condition if you cut it.

Thank you guys for the replies. I used to drive my car in my country with 2 and 1/2 cut springs. And i do not have any problem at all. :grin: This is just my another option. I can't see any lowering springs for my car which is corolla XLi. I even looked in the online store but still, i can't find any lowering springs for my car. :(

Cut the springs...if you'd like to see your car bounce around like a Pimp My Ride reject. If someone says 'mushkil nahin', ask him to %#%$ off.
