Looks pretty nice. What's all that white stuff on ur wheels?

Your highs looks great. I luv how the SC look when the highs are on. Is there anyway to buy a bulb that doesn't output much light so I can drive around w/ my highs on?

Dust from the shop. They had a gravel lot. The place was kind of in the boonies too.

I forgot my key to my wheel locks or I would have installed my KYB AGXs Adjs and Springs (Same drop). Turned out that we ran into a snag with the front struts on Lex400SCs car. We figured it out eventually but we wouldn't have had any time left for mine anyway. Next time the swap will be quick

I can't wait to get rid of the 2" gap on my wheels.

On another note, lex400sc has the 97+ tail lights. These look awesome on his car since the metal in the lights compliments his car's color perfectly. To sum up the tail lights IMO:

Black should have 92-94s
White should have 95-96s
Gold should have 97+

I haven't compared the other tails on the other colors.

lex400sc, the drop looks GREAT. Man, your Supra wheels have really grown on me. The whole car looks very nice - clean. Every SC needs to be lowered, the look is like night and day.

Thanks guys, I'll be washing my car this afternoon and taking some REAL pictures in daylight for you.

Legendary, I'm not using Supra dampeners. Would that stiffen the ride or loosen it? I think the ride quality is still very comfortable already. BTW, I do have negative camber on my rear tires now, which I'll have to remedy with an alignment job Monday.

Soarer, my high beams are regular Sylvania Silverstar halogens. Legend, if you want to drive with your high beams on all the time, you can try the DRL mod, or somehow lower the pitch of the highs below your low-beam cut-off. I would opt for the DRL though so you can still use your high beams when you need them.

The white stuff is gravel dust and probably some sand from the sandblaster outside. It's all over the wheels because it got on my hands, and thus on the sidewall, when we mounted the wheels back on. My buddy REALLY needs to pave his property because I have to wash my car every time I leave there. I don't think they ever will those because they have 5.5-ton trucks and 12-ton tractors roaming around all the time, which is death to asphalt.

Nice, where'd you get the clear corners? Did you pay the $130, or did you do it the home depot way? Let us know!
