I dont know alot about the mobile HIDs other than different tems give different colors? On of the temps gave a purple look to the light and I thought that would look cool with the Blackberry crush color of my car?

Whatever you do go with either 4300k or 5000k. Anything higher and you start losing visibility.

I went with the Borla exhaust,I got it from Sparks Toyota man what great prices! I ordered everything from them and even with shipping they were less than the local Toyota dealership.

Are the LED tail lights easy to install?

Are the HID's easy to install?

Well the parts are rollin in every day! Yesterday I got the Borla dual kit put on and just to make sure I had no leaks I took it to a local shop and had the one clamped connection welded. Man getting rid of that rear resonator makes a huge difference! I swer it feels like it has more power now, but it may be an illusion because you can hear what the engine is actually doing now. It has kind of a low growl sound now. Not loud at all and very tolerable inside the car. Im very pleased with the kit. This weekend the LED tail lights go in ,the rear wing goes on and wheels and tires. Pics soon!
