The cost of lowering your car depends on how much work needs to be done to lower it and where you have it done. In general, it can cost between $100 and $5,000 to lower your car by 2 inches.
If you’re working with a tighter budget, consider lowering your vehicle by installing drop spindles. You can typically purchase these at aftermarket retailers for around $100. However, if you’re unfamiliar with the installation process, you may need to cover the cost of labor for an auto professional to complete the job.
Another method to lower your vehicle is with springs, which can be considerably less complicated to install than spindles. You can also purchase a high-performance coil-over kit to lower your car in just one hour, though the cost of such kits sits at around $1,000.
If you’re working with a little more wiggle room, you may also consider purchasing coil overs, a combination of a coil spring and a shock absorber. Coilovers cost up to $2,000 but provide better vehicle height control.
