Default TechArt/GMG lowering Springs?

Its almost Christmas, and I have another 5 months to wait to get my GTS Cabriolet, and another month after that for it to make its Atlantic journey ... but this does not mean that I cannot fill my garage with crap to bolt onto it ...

Anyone got any experience with either the TechArt or GMG lowering springs on a Cabriolet?

worth it?

Also thinking about from Forgeline GT1s ... yummy!

happy Holidays

f**k that... I haven't dropped $7k on my GT3's suspension so I am not about to do it (and pop over to Home Depot for the angle grinder) for a hairdressers car

...think the coilovers (only parts needed for lowering) are just twice what the other springs are.

Correct...best I can tell, the only parts needed to lower a car cost $1400, not 7k from this company...vs about $600 for only a set of springs elswhere, I think it's a good deal myself.
