One more vote for the cheap lowering bolts. I used them on my 05 and it worked out perfect. Might not be the same as the air kit but it was dirt cheap and the ride isnt that bad at all.
2" lowering bolts for now, this winter hope to install an air ride kit. Depends on money, if you have $1200 or so to drop on air ride do it. If not just get some bolts and i good chiropractor to straighten out your back, haha. I love the look, but man it rides rough...
I am going with race tech front springs they give you the option of 1",1.5", or 2". For now just the progressive lowering bolt. Race tech also does the rear shock tailored for the rider at about $700, they were not air rides though.
