    Anyone know the cheapest place around?

    The other problem I have is I'm in the UK, and Toyota don't sell these parts over here and won't import. So looking for help to get me a set is someone can help.

    Thanks!

    Time and patience is the best way to find a good price... For example price is going way down on Gen2 Prius parts like the ones you're looking for. I don't see 'em on ebay very often but that's definitely a good place to look.

    BigPete,

    Thanks a lot, Buddy !?!

    3/4 of the way through my snow day margarita I just placed a $490 order on this site.
    I bought the thread subject plus some OEM goodies I couldn't resist.

    I used paypal since they could be too new...

    Their price for the Plus body kit is tempting. Too bad they charge shipping. :(

    I don't have the tools or the knowledge to self install the lowering springs so can someone who's had them installed tell me about what I can expect to pay?

    I called my local Toyota stealer and they wanted $932, which included tax and alignment. Then I called a large independent tire/wheel/full service shop. I spoke to the ACE mechanic who does their lifts/lowers, does them in his sleep. He quoted me $148 plus tax and an additional charge for the alignment if needed. I was shocked to see the delta in price for identical installations. Glad I shopped around!
