When do they plan to release them? I'll be interested as well as interested in the pricing. Gotta lower my car! :-)

I dislike the grill being in black, makes it look too Toyota-ish.

First time I've seen the black grille like that, I suppose you can only do that with a black colored finish...

I agree with rominl, the front is a little higher then the rear.

Overall not bad.

(Throw out that blacked out grill...oem looks nicer)

hey guys,

just to let you know, as that is my car, the height from ground to middle of the well are equal all the way around. i am extremely pleased with the height and the comfort of the ride also. as you know, there is no other option to lower the swb other than air or custome coilovers. but for bang for the buck, these are your best option. glad to see they have more pics up for potential buyers to see. they must be coming out pretty soon.
