What springs did you buy? Lots of DIYs on how to do it, search. DieselX posted a very good one.

depending on how much these springs will lower the car, you may need to get shocks as well... if its an inch or less, you'll prob be okay to ride out the stock shocks. It also depends on how many miles you've put on the stock shocks as well... they tend to last about 60k miles so if you're close to that mark, you might as well replace them while you're installing the springs.

Also depends very much on spring rates; some springs (revised Z) will overpower non-sport sedan shocks. Which also begs the question: coupe or sedan? (I'm gonna assume coupe)

Ask your questions in the suspension forum for additional feedback.
