No, I am dropped a little less than 2" on Goldlines. Prokits will probably look better since it is a bit lower, but it all depends on just how low your kit really is.

Yes 2in is pretty darn low, with a bodykit. I have prokits on my car and my blitz front is 4 - 4.5in off the ground (the lowest part of the bumper).

sounds like your kit is making up for alot of the ground you lost. unless you want to look slammed i'd go with something a bit mild. like the H&R's mentioned above.

When you install lowering springs are you suppost to install the rubber bushings that sit on top on the stock springs?Or do you just put the lowering springs in as is

not exactly sure what you're talking about but if your car has alot of miles on it it's probably a good idea to replace it. www.tirerack.com sells strut mounts and boots. if that's what it is you're talking about.
