Is it stock height? Any clearance issues?

Yes it is stock height. clearance is good. I have not had any problems at all. it goes up the slanted curbs well and clears most parking lot berms by 2-3 inches.

I have intrax springs and sensatrac struts. It dropped it like 2 inches... I would go with H&R or Eibach though if I were you... I'm debating on the Razzi kit or hoping to come across an AED kit.

I second that. The fitting on the rear bumper could be better. Look below the outer tail lights...

if that mount is bent you use a zip tie or wire of some sort to hold it up via the tail light. no bad... I miss mine...

yeha, i know. there is a gap under the trunk just like the tail lights. i think i will just get some thinker rubber under the lights..
I have a question for you guys. i was thinking about painting the grill. the paint painted them black. and i do not like it. i was thinking about painting back to a silver/chrome look. or should i go with something else?
what do you guys think?

I had silver mesh on my kit. it looked good, though mine was white. I would say either the silver or body color match. but ya, get it over all the openings, looks kinda tacky/out of place w/o it.

Kinda random, but do you park in a garage or carport? The finish looks really deep and glossy on the before pics. Black can be a nightmare to maintain when a car sits outside 24/7.

Yeah black shows EVERYTHING. The worst is when you see swirl marks on really sunny days.
