Thanks
Yeah, H&R sport springs. Ride quality is just like the stock springs and the drop was about 1.5"

Thanks, Where did get your H&R's from?
I tried ordering online and most sites say the drop is only 1.0" drop front and rear

I got them from XLR8 performance: http://store.excelerateperformance.c.../i-238962.aspx

It says that it's a 1" drop but mine dropped about 1.5"

for the OP an '09 I would get the OEM body kit!!


Mine is a '12 and I don't care for the kit on the '12 as it looks like an afterthought, the '09 will look good with an OEM kit and the price is not too bad and can be installed yourself or a bodyshop will be more reasonable than the dealership. Or possibly you can ask your dealer to match a bodyshop estimate to install if you're not comfortable.


On my '12 I'm thinking RonJon front, OEM sides and keep my mud flaps for the rear (have them on all around now), RonJon front looks so much better than OEM for '12.


Any decision is YOURS as you will be the one that looks at it each day and either loves it or is disappointed....

The kit looks awesome on 09-11 TL. Some good examples above. V1975, what rotors are you running. Are the as good as OEM ones, I will need to change mine soon.

Honestly I rather the MudFlaps over the OEM Kit. Looks to ugly Basic to me. Now if there was options to other body kits styles like i've seen on here. Then the green light all the way.

Mine are Stoptech cross-drilled and slotted rotors. They are better than stock as far and braking performance and heat dissipation. They also provide better aesthetics than the plain, stock rotors.
