    with his drop right now.......... he should be at around a 6/5 or so....... ill have to double check but thats what i calculated when i readjusted his torions.

    mud flaps are off a roughly 89-93 toyota celica rear.

    Original plan was too then I thought about rock chip and change my mind and left it alone. Still got to see if I gotta cut to make intercooler fit tho. Thinking of color matching intercooler to rims tho what u guys think?

    i say paint the intercooler down the center with the matching paint for the wheels, then mask it off on the center to read "22rte" and spray the intercooler black so then it shows the "22rte" in the same wheel paint........ it'll pop out just enough....... and keep it from getting too much attention (like from the popo) :waytogo:

    Depends on how think the IC is you might not have to cut the valance up. I'm running a EVO8 IC and it tucks perfectly behind my 96 4runner bumper which isn't much different that the 92-95 bumpers. But then again I'm shooting for stealthy look. Your truck is far from it :D

    Which part of the IC would be color matched?

    I think if you polished the end tanks and did what SD was talking about would be pretty sweet also cutting out the center section. But I still think painting the valance to match would complete the look.
