What do you guys think of this?

So recently i have been working on my X and did a lot of mods on it: changed the interior lights, changed the fog lights to match the HID's changed the angel lights and finally the last but not the least i painted my 132's. I searched every where to find a painted 132 set to look at but no one had any so i m guessing first painted 132's on xoupost (please dont ruin this for me by posting one thats already done :P) and by the way its an 06 4.4i and the 132's are oem 19'

I like it, looks good. I am not partial on Black wheels, but that is just me. Did you platidip them?

By lowering it, he means you can give it a better, meaner, more aggressive looking stance.

Doesn't look too bad. Now reduce the gap between your tire and the wheel well aka lower it.

I would say that our 4.8is' came lower from the factory, which makes it handle better

there is a difference, if u lower it make sure u get a proper 4wheel alignment done
