If all you're going for is looks, then these might do you fine. However, keep in mind that you get what you pay for. These ones are $36USD. A set of Ground Control ones are more than ten times that. I don't know about the X3s, but I can attest to GC using quality parts.

OBX: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

DropZone: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Arospeed: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Go with Eibach.

OBX, I just don't trust with safety related items.
Dropzone, I've got no idea
I don't know much about Arospeed. I do know that they also have a line of mufflers. On that alone, I'd probably avoid them.

Eibach makes suspension parts, and ONLY suspension parts. They know what they're doing.

edit: the prokit might not get you the drop you want though.

you get what you pay for..

I would recommend ground control coils.. but they are rather expensive.
