oh i do have one ? on the headlights, and i know there is a thread somewhere on here about it, but do you need to scuff the inside of the housing to make the paint stick and what is the best paint and how long will it last

I didn't scuff the housing. Just use painter's tape to mask it up, and use any kind of paint that can withstand heat. So far I had it for 3 years, still look fine.

It depends on what "low" means to you LOL.
I have driven it as low as I possibly could without rubbing the tires.
If I go any lower, I wouldn't be able to turn.
As for the rear, I can go pretty low, since it's cambered, so I have no rubbing issues.
It's a little bumpy, but drivable.

As a side note: It is not recommended to drive all the way down. It even says it in the owner's manual. It can ruin the bags when it's totally deflated and you are driving.

Hmm... I should take a pic someday showing the lowest I can go while driving.

It rides smooth at about 40-45 psi for me. By "rough", I mean bouncy and stiff.

Go to trdsparks.com for the chrome handles/trim.
The handles are pretty tricky to install. Just be careful, dont break anything!
Too bad I didnt take pics of the installation.



Thanks all!

i wouldnt be too worried if those bags went to ****, the firestone bags are just alright as far as bags go. if it blows disassemble the mounts and get either a set of contitech bags or the best ones out therethe slams with internal bumpstops. both beat out stones all day long.

I know, hurry up already! Sell your dailies, and get some air before Spring comes around!

My car is in winter mode right now... gonna take the rims off.
I can't wait for snowboarding.

I'm not sure what's the name of the place, but it's near Mt. Baldy. My friend took me there when we went biking, so it was my first time there.
