What are you lowered on? If it's a spring and shock combo then just get your stock top hats made into extended top hats....1.25" front and 1.75" rear and it gain you the shock travel back so your not hitting the bump stops.

Thats a good idea. Any idea where and how much that would run

Lol...let me know if you find out.

Seriously though, I'm trying to figure out an answer to that question myself. Seems like when I had my teg I was quoted around 60-80 bucks to have all 4 top hats extended which isn't a bad price considering you have to full welds to do on each top hat. Can't remember who quoted me that though....I ended up finding a set of 4 already made on H-T for 40 bucks shipped so I didn't have to go through that.

I'm not planning to get some Progress Series II coilovers to replace my PIC Apex's and would like to get my stock top hats extended to handle the drop since I"ll most likely have to drop them all the way to get the same height I'm at now with the PIC's.

I'll go make a new thread and see if anybody chimes in.

Edit: Here you go....watch the thread in the link below and see if anybody responds.
