I seriously don't know where to go now.. even though a few have been saying TTF but then again the put on the wrong springs on JMANS car so I really dunno..but whenever I tend to take my car to places, I only go where people off the forums highly recommend as they have had a good experience with them, but I always seem to get the bad experiences..GREAT! my dad comes home and says.. did u lower your car?it looks the same???

Toxic Beast Member 514 Member For: 18y 6m 7d Gender: Male Posted 10/07/08 02:48 PM Author Share Posted 10/07/08 02:48 PM Thanks for your help.. im from south eastern suburbs..I originally was going to head down to Suspension centre or city in north melbourne but changed my mind last minute since I believe this load of rubbish I was told on the phone from that place in dandenong.A member on this forum tonight highly recommended that I take my situation through consumer complaints tomorrow as I know I would be able to somethign about the wheel alignment .. but not sure how to go about the spring compressing side of things as that's illegal to do anyway =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
