Keep an eye on the Parts for Sale section for deals on used parts and if you want to buy new, Sponsor Classifieds will give you a chance for the best deals on new parts (for members only).

OP - I would strongly recommend you limit your search to front lips, rear spats, etc.

A lot less money and work involved and I think you will be happy with the results. Lots of members here have killer Z's without going through the hassle of bodykits. Also think about your wheels and stance too.

Springs, coilovers, and air suspension are the typical methods. There are a variety of options at varying costs. Difficult is very relative. Are you DIYing this stuff? Then it will depend on your skill and experience. If you're farming the work out to a shop then more difficulty typically equals more costs. Do you have a budget? There's a lot to consider here.

That doesn't even cover the need for certain suspension upgrades to keep your alignment in check depending on what you install and how low you want to go. It sounds like you have much to learn

ok thanks for making me sound like a total noob lol. Not asking to be spoon fed. I've been searching just thought a quick response and some estimated $$ figures from someone who's already done something similar might give me a quick idea of what i'm getting myself into and maybe I'll run into someone who enjoys talking about these things. I'm obviously not expecting ALL the specifics and instructions from you.

So lets please not treat me like a total retard :happydance: I just don't have experience lowering cars but you're right, I have much to learn. Gotta start somewhere. Just thought this would be a good place.

This forum is a fantastic place to start. May I suggest some heavy reading in the Tech Area Exterior section :tup: Then, once you have some good basic knowledge, you can pick the brains of fellow forum members with similar setups about specific details about their setup.

Some people like to go all out and customize their Z so that it is truly one of a kind. I am of the mindset that less is more when it comes to the exterior of the Z. I think it looks great stock :twocents:

Also, we should be clear that exterior aesthetics and suspension modifications are two very different modifications. Often they go hand in hand but not always.
