ok so i am going to take the lift kit and what knot out of my l series, i think i would like it to handle better and also have the body survive a bit better with the healthy power increase i want to give it in the near future,

what i want to know is how good to L series wagons look lowered (are there lowering springs available)

the thing goes real nice as it is but faster is the option and also i think it would look great in the weeds would i be wrong?

so where do we get the body kit from? makes them look heaps better,

do you agree taht i should be taking the car back to standard height if i am going ot be playing with more power... i guess it probably wont look as good as it does right now but im hoping is does still look good....

I think Wagonist has a body kit he imported from the states that he wanted to sell.

No you don't. They will buckle at the next speed hump. A mate of mine had a set and they went big time. I was going to buy them off him and get them fixed but before I bought them I took them to 3 different place to see if they could be fixed. They all said yep but why bother you will be back in the next 6 months. There as soft as sh!t and made by TSW. Ford aus cancelled there contract with them as well. So no you don't want those rims.

Unless of coarse they are of the camry sportivo from some years back but i thought they have the wrong offset.
