About to purchase..

After saving up over the summer, I'm looking in to buying:

Greddy exhaust
GReddy for Racing Ti-C Dual Exhaust 08 G37 Cpe V36 VQ37VHR 10127907 | eBay

Eibach Lowering Kit
STILLEN : Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Kit

Is there anything i need to purchase to get the lowering kit installed?
(taking to body shop to install)
I'm also looking into getting Vossen CV3, or Stance SC5, if anyone can recommend a good website for a tire/wheel combination that'd be great. I got a quote from a local wheel shop for CV3 with tires for 2500.

For lowering you should be fine without a camber kit since it is only a mild drop. For the wheels get in touch with Eric at getyourwheels.com, a stand up guy will get you a good deal(might have to wait since they are in back order, depending on what size your looking for), that's where I got my Stance SC5s.they are in a official vendor on the forum. Good luck and happy modding

Are you buying the exhaust through a shop? If you are try and negotiate a discounted rate, typically for a cat back you're looking at around 2 hrs at 80-100/hr, if you've got some tools its really not too bad to do yourself

My CBE took just under 1-hour for my shop to install it, and they are not a shop that typically does aftermarket work. Cost me about $90.

Regarding doing the work yourself, make sure you know what you are getting into. It is not a hard task, but the factory bolts will be fused to the exhaust from corrosion/rust. Without the proper tools, you will find it to be quite difficult to crack the bolts. A shop was going to crack all of the bolts for me for $20, but I would have had to wait 2 or 3 days for an opening. Instead, I paid the $90 to get it done on the same day I got the CBE.
