I have the toyota standard lowering springs in my car, and for the most part I do like the difference it makes as far as handling is concerned. I have some pretty beat up roads in my area, and when I have more than myself in the car the ride can get REALLY bumpy. Just my opinion.

So far only my system is installed half-assed. For now anyway. As for the HID's they wont install them and I got no one to install them yet. And as for the springs, they want 5 hours = $445~ of labor to install the springs. I am going to do this in the early morning with them unless you people convince me otherwise. lol

DIY shouldn't be too bad. With Chris's help, you can save your $445 and buy him a beer.
