Maybe be next spring I'll drop her since winter is coming up soon and I want to do it right so I think I'm gonna get coilovers instead of just lowering springs, I definitely plan to paint the grille this weekend but debating on using the plastidip method or regular paint....

u should get coils now and just drop it 1 inch for the winter so it´s not 4x4 and then adjust the coils in the spring as low as u want

I am pretty sure the blinker is illegal, the fog light I don't think so.

Looks great with the tint! I tried to black out my grille with regular spray paint and it looks ok but I'm going to redo it tonight by sanding it all down and repainting with Plasti Dip paint lol hope it looks better with that stuff, the black paint i used originally is too dark/glossy and doesn't match that well not to mention some spots on the grille look like a$$.

Thanks! The front windows and the eyebrow are 35% and the rear windows and windshield is 5%. Backing out of my driveway in the dark is a pain in the ***...

What kind of paint are you going for? I'm going to assume that your going for a matte black look?
