Thanks. Yeah, no regrets with the Amuse. Fitment and quality are amazing!

love it. I am actually going to get the BR's as well and gonna do probably a 1" drop as well. What kind of camber kits are you running/what kind of set up? Also, what width/offsets are your wheels? Sorry for 20 questions, i'm just trying to imagine how my setup will look with the 1" drop

btw those re-11's are so nice looking

Thanks for the kind words. I actually ordered a rear camber kit, but never used it as with a 1'' drop I was able to keep it very close to stock. I'll dig out the alignment report for all the stats. and post it shortly. Sizing is frt. ET22, rear ET15.

Very pleased with them. I decided on the BC BR's instead some of the pricier units, as a friend has had them on his Camry for 3 yrs. without any problems.

I am in love man, I know not everyone loves that lip, but it makes me want to buy a z so bad and put that lip. Well done sir, I would drop the front to match the rear a bit more, but it looks real good right now.
