Lowering 2009 FIT in Vancouver

Anyone in Vancouver with a 2009 changed the suspension yet? What is the availability of different springs/strut options here, and where did you have the work done? Prices would be appreciated too. Thank you.

Yes, T1R springs offered by A&J Racing is the least expensive option out there right now and they offer a discounted flat labor rate for installation.
Hard to beat, but as I said there are other options such as Eibach Pro-Kits, Tanabe DF210 to name a few.

Good luck and let us know what you decide on.

I decided to go for the Tanabe DF210 because of the amount of drop and the ride quality.

Here's a photo of the car after it has been lowered.
