Default Pick-A-Mod!

So Ive got some money to spend and have no idea how to do it.

How about I let SL decide!

Here's the choices.

New Tails:



CF Hatch Handle:



[btw if anyone knows anywhere else to get the hatch handle or an overlay perhaps, please let me know! I can only find the bbist one.]

Tein S Tech Lowering Springs:



TRD Envy Green Strut Bar:



Thanks for the input!

edit: Here's my box for a visual reference.

Thanks for all the input guy's, I appreciate it!

Looks like its time to lower the box, but I have a concern

My bud recently told me when he went to ray brandt scion [my dealership also] and asked them about the TRD lowering springs for his box. They told him that they would not install the springs and if they were put on it would void the warranty!

I was like wtf? Anyone know if this is true? Can they do that crap?

I want to do it, but there's no way I can void that warranty.

That would be like saying since you put rims on your warranty is voided. They're trying to scare you away from modding the box!

I think with a drop the car will look more complete. You got a good start with all of the mods you have. Keep up the good work.

In my opinion the xB's aren't too high to begin with, the xA however seems to have more clearance than Big Foot. I say go for the carbon fiber handle, cause it looks cool :D and you need some more dark accents.
