so like 370 total, is that decent?

also is that drop going to be a pain for scratching? I dont know much about lowering cars.

dude NO ONE, i repeat NO ONE in CA should be paying $270 for spring installment, idk if your in NorCal, SoCal or freakin Central.

1. Find a car club your cool with
2. Hang with them
3. Ask if someone can hook it up with a install meet

There's soooooo many Scion clubs in Cali is ridiculous if you can't find one, must be a sorry person with no friends. plus you're in g.grove, homie DO NOT DO IT. I'm from SD and there's NO WAY i would cough up 270 for a mf'in spring install, are you kiddin me. SoCal is the car mod capital of the US. the most you'll have to spend is for lunch or beer. that's it, anything more and you're nuts. it may sound harsh or _____y, but i can't do much when typing.

the guy in my squad when i was in cali, would say just bring him lunch. but there's so many others than scikotics. i think they do that b/c of people taking a cheap install then leaving the club, basically using and abusing the club for gains.

Was bored, and wanted to shoot something. So I took two photos of my SW. Shot wide open @ 1.4 since I don't do that too often.

Yea I have hubcentric rings on, but they are black. I noticed that you got goldish/orange ones. Although very subtle (when looked at close) I liked how they "pop" since your wheels are all white.
