I'm doing it like Kenny as well, I just don't know if 12 bottles will do the trick lol.

NO thats after done with the car bro
if 12 bottles be4 drop the car it can make my car drunk too.

Found a place that does it for $300 plus $60 to $80 dollars for alignment. Is that a good rate?

[JACK_FROST]

youre better off doing them yourself...really easy to do. call a buddy up and ask him to help. theres a DIY here

[MJZ]

How low?

Dealership installed TRD springs for around $200 + cost of springs (total was $430 something).

No alignment is needed.

This was just for the springs. If Toyota does them that cheap I'll do it there for sure but I doubt they will :S

1. find a friend who wants to help out
2. get access to an good torque gun (or you can use hand tools LOL)
3. rent a set of spring compressors from AutoZone
4. Set aside a couple of hours of free time in your garage

Save your money and do it yourself. Unless you like forking over hundreds of dollars for no good reason.

I would but I dont want to take a chance in screwing it up and if I do and cannot go to work I loose the amount it costs to install professionally everyday. Then I'll be kicking myself in the ass for not doing it professionally.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist or even an ASE certified mechanic to lower a car. If you can remember lefty loosy righty tighty and can remember to put things back together you can lower a car.

Search for a DIY. There has to be a few around here. Or whatever...it's your time and money.

I will have to talk to Toyota tomorrow because I thought it would be around 700 installed with Toyota. The only reason I am hesitant of the TRD springs is because of the uneven look with the I4.

[jayrguidaben]

just put spacers at the rear if your going to install trd. i did that and followed my wife with an another car and the car looks great. the front is lower than the rear.

[Sean89]

THe same issue exists on a gen 5?

EDIT: I just made a list of all the Toyota dealers that I will be calling to get prices on this job. I can post it here tomorrow for anyone to reference.

World Toyota - 678-547-9100
Toyota Mall of Georgia - 678-482-9990
Stone Mountain Toyota - 800-773-4208
La Grange Toyota - 800-226-2963
Heyward Allen Toyota - 706-549-7002
Jay Toyota - 706-322-8891

its like this, if you measure the wheel gaps you'll going to get 2 fingers in front and i think 1 finger at the rear but if you look at the side of your car its staight. if you put spacer at the rear you will get 2 fingers at the front and 2-2 1/4 at the rear and if you look at it on the side the front is lower than the rear now.
