    Well i need a whole new suspension anyways so idk.. i dont want to drop it that much because the roads around here suck and i already scrape in some places. Do you guys have any tips on making the torque stars really pop out or is that as shiny as ill get them?

    Paint your calipers a differend color (black with red claiper brkts) and put some lowering springs on It will look good. Looks clean just need a better camera.

    Agreed... Go with Eagle One Never Dull Polish, I keep 2 cans regularly, it works on almost anything that shines, and never hurts the chome finish or polished wheels... plus its relatively cheap and easily available
