do it urself if u have the tools and such. its not that hard and the only dangerous part is working with the spring compressors but if u use them right and dont screw around, its completely safe.

similar process for the front cept u have to unbolt the brake line from the strut. also recommened having a friend around that might kno wuts hes doing too for safety reasons and just for an extra hand.

a body kit isn't going to help your car's handling at all.
