I have the Zeta Armrest and LOVE it. An armrest is a must-have, IMO.

The armrest is a must-have IMO. Now it's time to lower the box and get rid of the wheel gap. Some other easy cheap mods are debadging, rear wiper removal, cold cathodes inside, "Supersoaker" mod, etc.. It's all about expression. Do what suits your tastes.
...looking good so far.

its where you take the rear windshield washer squirter and turn it so it points up, it'll shoot a long way and theres a write up on here about how to do it, and I'm not gonna lower it any because the roads here suck, I almost drag getting ontot he main road because the road dept. doesn't know squat, instead I'll have a set of wheels for shows and a set for daily driving

The Supersoaker mod is not just for show, although it does create one very well. You can use a safety pin or thumbtack to angle the actual ball nozzles within the spray unit. They will rotate to suit your needs. I've even used a solder iron to melt grooves in the sprayer unit so that I could angle my nozzles more straight back rather than up.
The 2006.5 xBs have 2 nozzles while the earlier models only have 1. The 2 nozzle unit may not spray quite as far as the single, but they are still just as effective.
I use mine to teach tailgaters a lesson. It is really funny to see the expression on the driver's face when they realize their car just got "____ed on" by the car they are tailgating. It's only windshield washer fluid, so it won't damage anything... just really make them angry. I've actually been shot "the bird" over the whole thing by some old lady in a Lexus. She was really mad when I sprayed her again!!!
As for lowering the car, I just find that a huge gap between the top of the tire and the bottom of the fender looks awkward, as if something is missing. Lowering the car a bit brings the fenders down some, thereby minimizing the horrible wheel gap. It makes aftermarket wheels and tires really stand out that much better!
If you have crappy roads that you have to drive on a daily basis, then perhaps lowering is not for you. I just avoid places where the roads suck!
