Just lowering springs, I need to go back Monday night and get it aligned.. they said it is better to wait a few days to let it settle.

I also had 6000K HID installed last week... they look like the Sexor

PROP (korean brand) here. It actually rides better than stock, very comfortable and no bounce.

Ohhh, looks nice. From the pics it looks like your hid's are leveled pretty good. Hope it doesn't blind incoming cars. How's the handling when taking sharp corners? Overall very nice.

Looks great, your 6K hid looks bluer then my 8k! I love the limo tint all around!
About an inch 1/2 is what I wanted to lower mine by, and slap some 18in rims, but if thats what it looks like with 17s... heh now I dont know

What does everybody think of this Studie Aero Grill? I think it would really finish off the appearance of the Sonata.

Looks better now with the larger rims, however I hope you live an area with nice roads. That would be a horrible ride in the DC metro area (VA and MD sides too).

Is that supposed to help your mileage?

Wouldn't work around my parts. My Sonata is almost too low as it is.

I'd like to see some additional pictures but it looks pretty good to me. I've been thinking about a new grille myself.

Thanks, Koreas roads are fairly bumpy... just gotta take it easy over them.

My Gas milage hasn't dropped any, I do notice less front end lift ... no wheel peel off the line= get up an move.
