No body kit is the best one. Welcome to the site though!

Razzi's don't look bad.

I agree, no body kit is the best body kit. Welcome to the world of n-body's.

spc2125 12-27-2012 02:29 AM

Where you from? Is it the 2.2 or the 2.4?

Nas Escobar 12-27-2012 02:55 AM

SPC, It's an 01, it could be safe to assume it's the Twin Cam. Ecotecs didn't show up till later in the 2002 run, at least from what I'm told.

Anyways, welcome to the forum rfoster!!

Welcome, sprint and cannuck are both cheap. Then you have eibach and h&r springs that are higher quality. I have sprints and am happy with them.

I have Canuck springs with GR2 struts and moog strut mounts, still waiting to install on the car cause im working on assembling them and gotta find the time to swap the suspension because ive been busy with work.. then since we got snow i got to find a nice day to take it to my chevy dealer (only place i trust with my car) and get an alignment. you can order at Canuckmotorsports.com

They are 189.00$ with $30 shipping fee. Eibach are around 230$ idk how much sprint and all that are... If you plan on lowering, you better get new struts, stock struts aren't meant for lowering springs. ;)

sleepyalero 12-27-2012 01:57 PM

Here's some links to springs..,

Sprint, 1.75 inch drop front and rear 228$ free shipping (around the same as Canuck)

http://www.directtuning.com/store/pc...ero-99-04.aspx

Canuck springs... 1.75 front and rear drop

http://canuckmotorsports.com/cat_car_domestic.html

Eibach springs.. 1.2 inch drop roughly.. Site says different but its around 1.2 also search google for these if you want em, should be able to find them cheaper.

http://www.directtuning.com/store/pc...-02-46cyl.aspx

H&r is around 250$ish.. Can't find the drop specs.. Google search "grand am h&r springs" for 99-05 it's the same car basically.
