PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

I don't know everything but I'll try

How much?
Depends on your setup if u want the basic I say $999 but that's without install of course. I really good one is like 1200. with a nice size compressor.

Cylanders or Compressors??
Compressors it's kinda like hyros but different. you are using it inflate and deflate airstuts.

Good for a daily driver?
Yeah sure Limos use them and big rigs use them buses and so on, my friend has one and it's cool.

Do they Mess up handling??
Well yeah you won't be able to handle as well as a guy with a some springs and gas shocks. I won't try to take a turn very hard. remember your riding on air it's not stiff or tight.

How do they work?
Well u have it's pretty simple you have a set of 4 airstuts with a pillow at the top each stut connets to one end of the compresser which is controled by by swiches remote what have you. push the switch one way it gose up thr otherway it gose down Like hyrdos. the more swtiches the more u can do.

Do the compressors have to be on for me to deflate/inflate
bags?

Yes

Are the compressors loud??
There not like the ones u use to fill your car up with air, they are quite until u use them

Whats good about them??
ride quality, Easyness to rise and lower your car. very popular at cars shows damn near all the cars have one. Gives u that droped to ground look sitting on tires. Fun to play with, nice crowd pleaser.

Whats bad about them??
Cost!!, No handles, Weight, Honestly unless you enter carshows alot it's not worth it. Plus i understand the bags break sometimes. I thought about them but I want to go to the track once in a while. I remember one guy with a yellow 2gnt i met in LA he had a set up he put on for shows and took off for daily driving, he said it took him under an hour to go back and forth, No thanks I stick to my coilovers I can do in 10 mins or less. Also I'm not usre but ithink u might get some uneven tire wear.
I get some with my coilovers but my friends' is 10 times worest with his setup on bags.

I hope this some help I don't know everything but I try,

Thanks for the help. Ill prolly get them b/c my eclipse is ALL SHOW. Alos where did you get your car painted? How much was it? And what is the color code of the name? Thanks for you help.

My friends and i painted my car it wasn't easy and I don't ever want to do it again. We kept messing up, were not pros just a bunch of guys, The paint was like 500 with the blue pearl and flakes. THe color code, not sure not sure there is one. It's just viper blue, I'm going to have it re done next year after my engine work is done and interior redone, I was going to go with a true pearl well see i'm always changing my mind. I'm going to pay to have this done this time. or pay my friends to do it again i'm not helping.

Well damn it looks like a $5000 paint job!!

There is an eclipse around here with bags. He was saying bags aren't really for daily driving, so he got a beater and just drives his eclipse to shows. It's supposed to be getting featured in lowrider euro soon. Anyhow, he said the cylinders/bags require a lot of maintenance on daily driving b/c dirt, water, etc can get in them.

in the future please don't double post

Whats double posting and whatever it is im sorry. Im new to the board and I dont know the rules. Sorry!! Thanks tho for the responses.
