I'm new here and I thought I'd let you guys in on what I've got goin on. We'll start with when I got it... (I'm copying and pasting from another forum so if something seems off, that's probably why)

2007 4cyl 5 speed (30 mpg yo) and it's about to get the stormtroop treatment. I have a few parts leftover from my other truck and some other stuff.

Image

2" Lowering springs ( Thanks Tom!!)
Image

Stuff leftover from my FX4
Image

And once I get it lowered, she's getting these...

Image

Got the headunit and speakers in...

Image
Image

More stuff.

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

I'm not super stoked on the foglight cover things, I may redo them...

Painted the fog light covers back but left a little trim ring.

Image

Image

Day time HID pics.

Image

Image

What's this?

Image

They need new ball joints but hey, I got them for free!

Image

Emblem holes shaved. It doesn't look great but once I get the handy dandy buffer out, it'll look better.

I can't do that fancy screen shot thing, so I took pictures.

Image

Next paycheck comes the notch and shocks.

Yep, she's my daily, that's why I'm waiting until I have all the parts before I go down.

Side note: does anyone wanna help me put it on? Lol the only other truck I've lowered was ghetto dropped by taking out a leaf. Lol

Thanks man, it's actually relatively easy. Just bake, pry, paint, re-seal.

Fed ex brought me my flip kit today.

Just waiting on the next paycheck so I can order my notch and shocks and then I can install it!
