Not that much, Tinted the windows, did the clear bra, clear side markers. I would like to lower her about 1" but am not sure what the best way to do that is without hurting the ride quality.

She turns 2 years old on March 27, how fast they grow up.

What clear bra did you use and are you happy with it? I assume it also covers mirrors and perhaps door edges?

I love the black grilles! Please let me know where to get one and how difficult it is to install. Did you do the install yourself or have someone do it?

Sell it after 6 months of ownership for $23K less than what you paid for!

Yup, that's what I did.
