The kit from Sunset for springs and shocks/struts was $734 without freight.
Before it was all said and done I almost doubled that cost by also buying front strut mounts, tie rods, and sway bar links.
I've only driven it maybe 500 miles since having the work done but so far haven't come anywhere close to scraping anything. The new height is not extremely low. I think it's the height that the car was originally designed to ride at. Like I said, only about 3/4 of an inch lower.

Thanks for the answer on price.
Do you by any chance has pics of before and after the suspension swap.
I want to lower the car to where it was designed to be but I do not want to make the tide too harsh. And this sounds like half the money vs After market solutions.

IMHO you're better off going with Bilstein PSS-10 or KW-v3 coilover rather than the seperate factory spring and shock setup. Once you factor in costs for install and alignment, the difference in total costs in percentage terms is not that much and having the flexibility of 3 way adjustable suspension is a bonus even if you don't track/race your car....IMHO 
but i'm pretty close to dumping my 5000 mile P10's in favor of the MO33 kit advertised for sale by sunset for 993s for $993.............
i do not like the ride compliance of the P10s.
I do want to keep lowered ride height
and
i can dial in anti roll as required with the RS ARB's i have = no need to have single adjustable coilovers.
just noodling now, time will tell.
