get the fsport springs if she doesn't want it to be dumped, or coilovers if you want to adjust, but by the sound of what you're looking for springs would be the best bet.

H&R or Eibachs springs will give her what she is looking for.
Its cheap and you can run stock shocks.

Where is a good place to get windows tinted? I'm in Fed Way.

I got my windows tinted in my Legend when I was in CA but would like to possibly get the ES300s tinted.

You keeping stock shocks?
If you go aftermarket, Koni Yellows 5 way adjustability will do the trick.

if youre interested in f-sport springs at any time let me know, i have a set lying around because i swapped to coilovers. if you want to be able to fully customize ride height just go with coilovers. ive been on bc racing coilovers and the feel is perfect

Glad you referred me to him. His shop is called Custom Window Tinting...I think (very original lol). I am very pleased with my tint and price was on point. He has a very clean shop and takes off the door panels.
