Damn me too.lol. Looks like you're going to have a lot done by meet day, going to look so good. I want to drop mine lower also but I already scrape going up driveways and really don't want to pay for another alignment.

I believe firestone has lifetime alignment for a hundred something. My friend told me he went there 3 times in one week, no questions asked

DBO... I have opened my headlights about 100 times now with the oven/ heat gun method, needed too to do the retrofit but Im scared to use the heating method to open up the taillights because the plastic is really brittle and the paint inside seems to be coming off little by little.
As for the alignment, you sure its not a hundred and something for a years worth of alignments? Never heard of lifetime alignments.

Lifetime alignments are definitely a thing, I just don't know much about them because I've never had one, lol. A friend of mine has one set up for her FJ though, I just didn't ask her about it, lol. But Iwould also like clarification that it's not a yearly thing lol. A hundred something sounds really good for that! I've heard Sears has them too but for like $200-$300, but again would need clarification, lol. Now that I wrote this I think this is where my friend got hers from, lol.

Yeah, i looked it up afterwards and it is around the $140 price range for lifetime alignments. Thats pretty good considering I paid $55 for my last alignment. As for the taillights, it looks like some sort of special metallic paint so im just going to buy some new ones . Also because the last time I painted something on my car, it started chipping within weeks.lol

Lmk how well those fit, ima order some too but money just got tight haha holidays man, its a love/hate relationship. But from what ive been reading, the depo brands were the ones everyone been buying. Cant wait til meet day

DBO, they shipped fast. I just got them! They were expected to get here the first of Dec. I'm going to install them tomorrow morning so I will take pics and let you know how they fit look. The quality looks decent, although right out of the box, deep in the detail, you can see what looks like errors or just unevenness. I will take pics tomorrow, can't today though, have work.
