Thanks! I added them to give it a kinda old school look, and to cover up the only part that's not black.

Ha ha on the lowering. What do you guys recommend to lower her? That's one area I have no knowledge of. I'm very ready to do it, so any advice will be GREATLY appreciated.

Man, I just checked that link and it's 1500 bucks! That's expensive. I'm sure it's worth it though.

Is there anything out there that will lower it and not break the bank?

If you talk to J.D. on here (creator of shotgun shock) he may cut ya a deal.

Progressive offers a cheaper "lowering" solution.
