this weather sux. wut u guys think
Snow everywhere - I was watching WGN last night and they said more was on the way I believe you said those tips were temporary - if yes then maybe 4" would be nice. Summit Racing sells them but they are straight cut which look larger than slant cut. I had 3" on mine for about a year until they bugged me enough to replace them.

I would ditch the Lexus emblems too but then you have to get the holes filled (body putty or tack welds - better) then repaint which costs bucks

Yeah at least the tips are inexpensive so you have the option of easing into larger ones to keep the look you like. As for the holes they blow - I was kind of surprised when I took the emlems off and saw them. I started by painted my gold ones gloss black and then finally removed them and repainted the trunk lid.

Tanabes will give a nice drop - I would use with OEM struts until they blow. As for modifying fenders it depends on offset. If you are close to +45 then maybe no mods will be necessary. Even if you need it you won;t know how much until you install springs - car looks great as it is though
