Honest feedback is appreciated.
I like the lugnuts, gives a little contrast since your color. tires and wheels are all dark. Did you go with 18s, what size tire did you go with, looks like a slight stretch to them?

Thanks for the feedback. Debating whether to spray then black or something.
I went with 225/45/18. Haha I am so clueless and yet I just bought everything crossing my fingers that everything will work out....

different topics but, I had some hub issues and was told to get hubcentrics. So yeah... Still have so much to do. II realized that you learn the most when **** goes wrong and you're trying to fix it.

Tenabe's coilovers. Debating if I should go lower though

Prior with stock suspensions and 18x8.5
Looking great so far! Did you get the tail light vinyls yet? As for the white on the tires, this might help:
Meguiar's G12024 Hot Shine High Gloss Tire Spray Meguiar's G12024 Hot Shine High Gloss Tire Spray
. I spray it on after washing it and it makes the tires look clean and shiny.

Thank you for helping me brain storm through ideas!
It's finally kind of coming together a little bit.

And as for the vinyls... I bought them and I actually have them. The thing is I bought the charcoal shade rather than the "smoked". I have been kind of lazy of reordering. You bought the smoked shade right?

No problem! Glad we can help.

Yep, I have the smoked vinyls. I actually ordered charcoal too, but I was able to catch them in time before they shipped to have it changed.

Were you asking about any specific parts?

My front lip is TRD and was ordered through Carson Toyota here in SoCal. Under my lip is a Aeroflow Splitter which is also in SoCal and are custom done for each specific car. They also did my side skirt extensions. The RGB Halos were done at El Stig Garage, check out his work on FB or IG.

I was averaging about 39mpg until I added the Air Suspension, the added weight dropped it down to between 36-37mpg. I did just get new lighter wheels and one size smaller tire, so we'll see if that will help it get back up a little. It really doesn't bother me that much though because I don't drive alot (less than 5,000 miles per year).
