ok so I just got off the phone with Master Body Works ( www.masterbodyworks.com ) and they told me that body drops range from $60 to 3000 depending on if I wanted it bagged or what not. He asked what kind of vehicle it was and I told him it was an Oldmobile Alero and he said "oh" (Yeah that didnt sound to good to my hears) and he said it would probrably be around $1,000. now from what I hear from you guys these drops are not that expensive so let me know some of your 2-cents.

if your looking to lower your car.. it shouldn't cost anywhere near 1000 unless you are getting bags. (and those run around 2k)

click the "alero upgrades" on the side of the main page, and find some lowering springs you want. and search for the how-to about doing it.

should be good for starters...

ive seen cars with body drops. bag it out first, then see if you want to body drop it. that way ur still adjustable wiht ur suspension. if your keeping stock body then u might want to body drop it but if you have a body kit u really dont need to. then again i agree with joel on not being sure if you can do it to a unibody.
