Actually JDM = Japanese Domestic Market

Parts such as the Greddy exhaust you have on your car is JDM. So therefore you can say that your car has JDM parts on it but that still does not make it a JDM box.

Unless you brought over a toyota bB, your xb is not JDM.

Although, since it has japanese parts on it, you can refer to it as JDM styled. Please don't call your car something it is not.

Your car looks good. Doesn't really look like a 4 inch drop? It looks around the same as other xbs lowered on goldlines or tanabe df210s.

Both kits you listed are good choices. Go for it.

your car will never be JDM unless you put in the 1.3 litre motor and make it right hand drive, smaller bumper etc etc, a few badges and stuff isnt going to make your car made from japan

I never meant that i had an actual BB. I titled this thread JDM Box, because that's my liscense plate. I am only going for JDM styling. Thanks for the compliments.
The drop is kinda ghetto. I'm runnin coilovers from an echo that were retrofitted. The fronts never settled all the way even with the backs. It is a 4 inch drop though. I'm prolly gonna go with the tien ss full suspension sometime soon though

And by the way, i knew that JDM stands for japanese domestic market

I like the Noblesse better than the Fabulous. The Fabulous really exaggerates the lines of the car. I like the extreme VIP styling, but it doesn't really promote a clean or a simple look...

About the 4 inch drop: maybe you could take a picture of it at standard height because I don't think that low angles are conducive to showing off how low you are. From the pictures though, it looks like you're running about a 2" drop. I have an approximate 2.2" drop and it looks about the same as mine.
