Good choice man!! Love the look of the AU's, I would lower it 2 & 1/2inc at the rear and 2inc at the front. Check my old one out, you will find a picture in the members gallery under AKA302. I lowered it 3 & 1/2inc at the back and 3inc in the front, had to roll front guards but i had 20inc rims. I am sure with 19inc rims you would be fine. Nice work man looks sweeeet!!!

They look good, the factory kit would set it off. What tyres did you get on them?

Because the tail lights look a bit dull from the night shades? maybe a wet rub and buff to bring up the shine.

What to you mean by 'only Maxxis', I reckon Maxxis are pretty good, particularly the MA-Z1's, which it looks like you've got in the photos...
Wheels look good though. Very chromey. |

You could get them painted or just give them a wet rub with 2000 or 1500 and a quick buff with some fine grade compound, Or just a hand polish with some cut and like a wax for shine.
Depends if you have access to a buff and are comfortable with it, Be careful with the plastic.
