    Bro you don't owe anybody an explanation of jack. You weren't asking for an interrogation questionnaire.
    I'd say plan B. And thanks for your service.
    Exactly what I was thinking.

    I say go performance over looks, thats what i always do.

    Cost wise I'd do the Icon Stage 2 and call her done. Know need for new UCAs unless you plan on playing harder or trying to squeeze minimal down travel out of the stock suspension using extended travel COs. Bilstiens in the back suck in my opinion and get way too hot quickly; the 2.5" COs will pair nice with the rear reses 2.0s.

    Link to kit I'm talking about is below, just shop elsewhere for a deal and you'll be under 2k and can spend the rest on sizzle :wink:

    Plan D: Toytec 5100 coilovers, wheelers 5 pack leaf pack and rear 5100's. that leaves you a grand to do whatever else with. New tires ect. Upgrade the suspension for everyday driving and comfort and still function off road too, its a win win situation. No need to get all crazy to pound the pavement.
