    Shocks/struts for the 9th gen?

    Um...does anyone know if there's any aftermarket struts to the 9th gen? I lowered my car with the TRD springs, and the ride (well, in general) is actually pretty comfortable. But the road in my area is quite rough, and in those areas my drive nearly turns into a bullride. After a lot of searching, the only aftermarket shocks/struts I've found was the Dropzone, which I found on eBay.

    I've NEVER heard of Dropzone (in fact, it rhymes with autozone, so I'm scared).

    Anyone have recommendations on these? Or is there any other aftermarket shocks/struts available for us 9th gens?

    Re-paint them....but they're the only good OEM replacements for our car. Either that, or get the Tein SS coilovers.

    oh wow those koni shocks are expensive...dropzone's like 250 for a set of four, and that's like the price for two with koni...oh well, guess that's quality for you.
