Welcome to the club mate!

As for the springs id recomend gettin some uprated shocks if you do decide to keep em,but the decison is really up2 you,it all depends on how bad your roads are an if you can stick em! lol

As for the Parts try some of these out...

Bouncyness can be contrbuted to numerous factors, some being the actual quality of the suspension setup, if your shocks are bad are arent adequate enough. The springs being cut. etc etc.

As i posted before, might as well post it again as you written it in here too. :P

Hi there, i shall try help you with some things. So you lowered ur car 40mm yeah? In exactly what do you mean by the car tends to bounce a bit?? Do you mean that it's a harsh ride?? if that is what you mean then yeah that's what you get when you lower a car, harder ride but handling is improved. If you want comfy ride, you can put ur old springs back on which is only lowered 25mm.

As for parts for the car, they do not make smoked rear lights for this car, you will have to lightly spray it urself if you want it to look darker, i have attached a pic of what my rear lights look like .... wipers you can get from toyota dealer. Interior accessories, i dont know what you are looking for. Body Kit... good in finding one... only site i know is www.toyoshop.nl/

Hope this all helps.

Shelly :thumbsup:

Might sound like a retarded question, but how do you manage to spray it lightly without totally blockin out the light from coming out?
