Good Shop To Lower car and fix Broken Bolt??

My install didnt go to good today, i broke one of the bolts that goies in the rear control arm, when installing my springs,

So im looking for a shop to lower my 00 civic and fix that bolt. I already bought a replacemnt bolt for that one, and the left rear side is already loosened.

If anyones knows of any shops that can do this(other then the affilates) asap. give me call 905 925 9328
Mark.

Is it true, that if you lower your car, your ride becomes bumpier?

Very much so. The lower the bumpier. Imagine the bump when your oil pan hits a raised manhole cover.

for an EK you will need to replace the whole rear lower control arm if you have to drill out the bolt and mess up the bushing. I would pm Scott Newman on here and get him to do it, awesome prices and awesome work.

I removed Scott's number because I'm sure he doesn't want it advertised all over the net. Pm him if you need it.
