Thanks everyone. I'm gonna keep repin for da ES's. I got some modz I'm working on this week and next week that will hopefully go well. Please give me any input or advice you may have.

-HIDs are going in today.
-Taking my TRD front lip to a body shop to see if we can make it fit nicely. I dont like the fact I dont have a front lip and I got 10weeks before the exclusive front lip will get here.
-Switching out to Tanbae springs. Thinking about getting front and rear sway bars, but I'm not sure where I can find them.
-Need to be working on trunk set up but I'm horrible at measuring the diminsions. I can customize everything else but I need my sizes to be right so it will fit nicely and it would be nice is someone knew the measurements and could give them to me from their ES. *cough*cough* Vin78, LexOnDubz
-Still working on secrete tail lights mwhaaahaa just got to finish testing and make sure I'm not breaking any laws

Currently I have the B+G springs which is a 1.6 drop all around but I feel my rear is too low. I like da front but the rear can come up quite a bit. It almost looks slamed in the back. I just order the Tanabe springs which is a 1.8 drop in da front and 1 in the rear. Hopefully it will give me a little bit of a rake.

Hey Smitty what are you planning to do to your trunk? Maybe I can give you some advice if you need it, as far as measurents, I threw those out, but I dont mind goin in and measuring if you really need it. Just let me know what you want to do. CUSTOM TAILIGHTS . Sounds interesting, whats up your sleeves. *** now I want a damn body kit on my ****. lol
