Wow, how do you get your car on a lift for service?

Terry - Does the EDFC really help in going up driveways and bumps? Does it prevent the suspension from flexing alot so that I can tackle bumps better.

Don't you guys hate scraping the front end when you have to go down a steep driveway or a mean dip. Sometimes going sideways over them isn't possible. I have the RMM kit and I can barely stick my foot under the front bumper.

it helps me out...
stiffens up the car a lot...
less flex, less chance for scrapping...

my sportline bumper is angled higher in the front than near the wheels,
so i have more clearance when going down or up driveways...

i know the RMM is straight across...

Usually officers gives tickets to those ricer honda's for being too low, but I think a luxury car like a lexus, they will usually not ticket you. Same thing goes for aftermarket HID's. Honda's with HID usually gets ticketed but on a lex alot of officers think it came stock like that even with an aftermarket HID kit.
