My IIP

Needs to be lowered..

OH trust me, Ive been planning on doin that for awhile. Im wondering if I should get a lip kit before I lower it to make it look better, either way i'd end up spending about 400 bucks. (id have to get shocks because there are TONNS of speed bumps in the parking lot at my highschool and stock struts wouldnt last very long with lowering springs.)

My suggestion is instead of getting a Lip-kit, save the $$$ to get adjustable coilovers. Having a lip looks nice, but on a lowered car..

My setup consists of Tein SS-Ps which is set to pretty much the same height as a Full TRD set would be. Rarely do I worry about speed bumps and what not, all while keeping the performance benefits over a higher grade coilover kit (w/ adjustability).
There are disadvantages to the comfort level which is expected from the aftermarket. Something the TRD set is better suited for (keeping a default level of comfort), but in either case I think a lip-kit would be much more troublesome to the mobility of any lowered car TRD or otherwise..

Thanks! Haha, the floormats are gone now, it turns out that wasn't the best idea. LOL

The tails are amazing, they are the Anzo's and on I got them on eBay for around $150. I had the TYC's before and I personally think these tails look wayyyy better.

I've always wondered what the clear bottom section is for, is it for the blinker?
