Default Where to lower car in OC?

I've got a RX350 that I want to lower just a bit... Where in OC is a reputable shop that I can go to get that done?

Thanks!

Super Autobacs in Stanton are pretty good.

Cool, thanks. I go to them for maintenance already.

So what springs do you guys recommend? And how much?

In south county I highly recommend Dynamic Autosports in Irvine. Their prices are good, and they are highly skilled at modding. (spring installation would be an easy job for them.

Thanks for all the suggestions, and as a newbie when it comes to springs, lowering, etc... how is the ride quality going to be changed on an RX350 if it is lowered?

i'd suggest check the RX forums on the ride if lowered. also depends on which springs you get and their spring rates compared to the oem's + shocks.

also, if you go to Dynamic, Son will take good care of you +1

did you ask this question in the other forum? any springs and shocks will be better in my opinion then the stock ones. the stock ones suck and will probably start leaking eventually (shocks). dynamic auto in irvine still around?

normally yes i would say anything better then stock, but in the RX's case you need to do it since the stock ones are not designed good. i'd rather not answer this question in the RX forum, since someone will probably start talking smack to me, which will probably result in me getting a warning again.....even if i say nothing.
