Thanks ...it looks very different now that it's dropped.

The Shocks cost me $324.99 shipped
Springs were $230.95 shipped

The exhaust tips are different, stainless steel slanted tips...I ordered it from the site on this thread https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...hlight=exhaust

I thought they looked kinda bad without the lip kit...but after the drop they look good....you can't really see the resonators anymore...so it complements the chrome handles/emblems on the car pretty nicely. If you got the lip kit they are perfect if you don't wanna change the stock exhaust.

Just grab some after the tint...I know ur car is gonna be pretty sharp n stealthy.

I'm supposed to not buy anymore stuff after I get my headers put on....but now I gotta get that Fujita CAI like yours. Maybe pulleys after that.

I like it. Your tint looks much darker than 30% all the way around(especially the side shot). What film are you using?

It's 30%...on sunny days I wish I woulda gotten 20% lol....

During evenings, cloudy days/overcast the tint is very dark and looks good though

Anyways it's Llumar film. I got it done at a shop though.

My next car is gonna be 20% for sure. I have 30 too and on sunny days it looks like its 50%. But its better than 35% and i'm happy with it.
