if front yes, not hard to fit but time consuming, if back then you dont need compressor.

cheap option or expensive? if your goin for a small lowering, buy some springs off here quite cheap, but if you want serious you need the proper kit which is gettin into hundreds usually. Haynes manual is a good investment £20. step by step guide. The back needs to be done in one go, both sides in one go, else it can snap brake cables and stuff, its fairly simple. Try the classifieds area, breaking corsas and stuff like that you will find what you need.
