    Man you feel really strongly about this. You really shouldn't buy these for your truck then.

    Someone who purposefully goes around vandalizing other people's trucks doesn't belong on this forum. Tread lightly.

    I had mine on for about 6 mo. and the red on the TRD Sport badge are starting to fade badly. The red is bleaching out from exposure to the sun.

    I epoxied 9 neodymium magnets in the badge and they are removable. But the magnets hold really good, it's a bit of an effort to remove the badges. But I like to take them off every few months and clean behind the badges.

    A much lighter wallet?

    jk. Well.. kinda/ You paid more and got more. Mostyl shocks and the catback, but that's worth something obviously. The worst part about my OR is the stupid brake dive. Fox's would fix that.

    How bad is it? I haven't seen any videos or anything.

    I don't think it's something you could capture on video that well. It might not even look that bad.
    I'll say it's certainly a minor annoyance that I personally haven't gotten use to as much as I wish I had. If Fox's weren't so expensive, I'd probably upgrade.

    That's one of the biggest reasons why I splurged on the Pro to be perfectly honest.

    Actually the "Brake dive" has very little to do with the shocks.
    The shocks won't stop that.
    Shocks only dampen the rebound of the suspension by using different valving.
    To reduce the "Brake Dive" you need to add stiffer coils.

    You most definitely know more about this than I do. Maybe I should consider stiffer coils in that case.
