Yeah but I think they can look better after painting, more of a match to the paint and a glossier look.

it may look nicer but it isnt gonna bring ur car together anymore than as it sits unlike your it makes a big diff in that it looks like it has a little bit lower stance.

Yeah it actually makes a huge diff, the thing doesn't look like it has such a huge lift kit on it anymore. I can't wait to get my springs and struts in.

what type of priming did you do for the lowers?

the previous owner of my car must have backed over a cactus or something, cuz i have a bunch of scratches on my lowers, does anyone know what can be used to fill it and smooth it out? do i have to worry about the paint/filler sticking to the lowers?

does anyone know what color paint for lowers would be close to volcano black? mine have started to fade into a grey...thanks

Use adhesion promoter for your primer.

you'll have to get the paint from the dealership (your paint has a very small amount of pearl in it so duplicolor won't work. the dealership has spray cans that you can use but they cost at least twice as much as duplicolor
