quick question. I have a 99 ES300 on K-sport coilovers and my friend was telling me about doing bags on my coilovers. I heard it has been done before but I have no clue where to start and what I would need and how much it would cost me to do it. Anyone that has done it before maybe you could help me out on this one. Thanks.

You need Universal Air, they have bags and a kit. Your shock can't be no more than a certain thickness, I forgot the exact diameter. It is somewhere posted on here, you can search, unless someone who knows it can post it.

yup,your gonna need the universal air suspension kit.to have the bags mounted over your struts,the strut body cannot be bigger than 2.14" wide.you should be able to use them because i actually emailed KSport before and asked the measurements.i forgot the exact measurements but they will slide over.
