found this link http://www.oempartworld.com/2395_PTR11-52070

my guess is that the weight difference between hb and sedan is what makes ur car look lower...anyway u look at it looks cool.

Its weird how different sites say different things... I saw that one u linkef before... i also saw one that says 1.2 all around... Other says 1.3 all around and another one 1.5

i wonder why its different???... Idk exactly but my car sits at around 2 finger gap front and rear.. I will post pics of my fender gap before and after in a minute :)

yours looks really good man, when my 2 kids and wife and i get in the car the front gap is like 1 finger and rear is gone lol. my city has awful roads and bad winters and its my only car at the moment.

Hi gonjon17, thanks for the pics, this is exactly what I'm looking for as a drop. I will go with TRD's even if they're about 80$ more expensive than others...

Found TRD springs in toronto cost is 225 plus tax and 10% I think that is little on an expensive side.
