I Got It

I bought a black 2006 Cobalt SS Supercharged. IT has all the stage 2 kit on it and the GM Performance exhaust. THe car has been lowered i believe and was wondering if there is any way to tell what kind of springs were used?
Thanks

I think Eibach's are black so they look almost the same. You just have to look for an Eibach sticker on the spring itself. You can tell if it's been lowered tho, you should only have about an inch or two clearance from the outside of the fender if ur lowered, 4-5 in. if it's not lowered(back tires)

I wasn't sure if they were red or not. A buddy of mine got sportlines for his 2.2 and they were black. But I've seen them red too
