So you have the same wheels? Damn, I thought maybe I was the only one! What size tire are you running? I got these wheels and tires for $400, so I couldn't complain about the size.

Yeah, I know the bumper looks like crap. Some lady hit me in an intersection a couple months back. I used the insurance money to do some other mods to the car, and never got around to getting a new bumper. Hopefully I'll have one soon and get the whole car repainted.

I really want to pick up a TRD lip kit, but they are so expensive! I might just go with the Acura lip from ebay for now.

As for lowering the car, I believe it has allready been lowered. Does anybody else think it looks lowered? The suspension looks stock to me, but rides nice and stiff. I've compared it to a ton of stock solara's and it sits lower than the others. I'm thinking some coilovers from myself for the holidays this year! :lol:

I can tell your car is Lowered... You should see mines right now at it's stock height. Feels like a dam lifted car.

I would say your car is definitely lowered; like the rims...some blacked out corners and headlights would look good on it!

I think the blacked out lights will be the next "cheap" mod I'm going to do to the car. I'm just a little nervous about taking them apart.

Thanks for all of the nice compliments!

You mean you've never checked to see what suspension is currently on?

lol, of course I've checked. What I'm saying is that it all looks so factory. I can't find any brand names on the springs. Are there brands that paint their springs black?
