I used the top mounts off my TEIN CS and had them like that for 3 years without problems. Now I upgraded to their billet mounts so that I could put back together the TEINs.

Thanks guys
So i'm kind of leaning towards UAS bags right now. Price is cheaper and seems like a lot of people are riding on it.
So, its very reliable only with the brackets.

that only helps so much. if you're running more negative camber due to fitment and you drive low, you will rub the bags once in a while and in the end it will add up.
Both UAS and PMVIP routes will require you to modify your coilover-type shocks extensively in the rear.

I love my Phantom Cup Kit by Platinum VIP on my 3rd Gen GS430. I set my drive height with no air in the cups and when I see crazy pot holes, speeds bumps, and road works, I am able to air cup and drive at stock height.

^^Did you have to hack up the rears to fit? I have bcs currently. I kinda want cups seems more simple, I only need low or raise up over bumps but just the cups themselves are 2500

Yup had to chop about 2inches off to bring the bag lower to where oem suspension would sit sounds like a big fuss but its not if u need Info and pics incase u do go bags u can pm me ill be more than gladly to send pics and helpful info

I also wanted bags just to raise on driveways but who am I kidding I find myself playing with the switches time to time also being able to park and lay the car on the ground and tuck my 19x12s awsome
