Default Coil overs?

Hey everyone.
Thinking into getting some coil overs for my 2000 Monte carlo
Has anyone done this before and what brand should i get?
Was there a kit or did you just wing it?

Yep, it's definitely a lot of coin to drop at once, but it appears they have taken everything into consideration and offer up one of the most complete kits I have found. Buying individual components of the same quality and having new top plates fabricated would (imo) easily exceed the kit price. I plan on getting the Stage III kit once my Monte is paid off and I can start doing major mods to it.

Thanks guys for the sources, ill have to look into it more.
Edit:
So yeah....not in the budget...at all lol.
To bad that custom parts are harder to get for our cars resulting in higher prices. Not like the VW and honda kits that go for like 200+
