Stazi endlinks

Sandblast and reinforce the subframe ($60 around here - your mileage may vary)
It's a good chunk of change, but it'll last for a very long time, look great and ride/handle great.
Believe me... I would love to do all of that, but im on a VERY limited budget, this car is also my daily driver. I bought it in October of 03' with 100K miles. and as of today it has 123300 miles, a lot of city and highway miles. So needless to say, a koni suspension would KILL my back ( since I have back problems already), and it would be virtually impossible to drive in the winter with that low of a setup. So if I do want to drop the ride height at all, the MOST I would drop it is 1 inch. Sandblasting would be a great idea... but at the same time, depends on the budget. The Bat Sway bar.... mmm sorry, but TOO much money. Im trying to get all of my parts through SLM, so basically I want an upgrade with praticality and a good price. For the sway bar, I want to see if I cant get some better endlinks and bushings though.
