can i be first to give you props. i think it's cool that you're fixing up a highlander.. i'm a fan of customized suv's and trucks. (my bf's got a tacoma, so i'm a fan of toyota's too) i know what you mean about your parents not letting you lower it, sometimes parents prevent you from going all out on your own car, which sucks. but good work so far. i see in your signature that your thinking of airbag suspension...go for it! i'm getting my air cylinders in july, and i can't wait. i love suv's on bags..
i also think you should do some shaving, and make that thing look nice and smooth
maybe bigger rims too. do they make grills for the highlander? i love the way those billet grills look. just my little opinion.
