There are NO off the shelf kits anymore, what I did or a much lower quality bag-over-coil setup are the only options. The bagovers generally ride very soft and aren't pleasant. Bagover kits use a sleeve-style bag, too, which isn't what you want on a car as heavy as a D2.

Doing a car with very little aftermarket means doing a lot of custom fabrication type work.
