Nice! B)

I'd say you're low enough. Yes to tints and spacers, (10mm should be fine), but racks as in roof rack? I guess if you surf, sure. If you don't, NO! Racks don't look cool IMO.

What do you mean by truck tips? You meaning exhaust tips??

Oh ok, yes to the rack then, but the tips I'd need to see what you're looking at purchasing. Also, single outlet or are you planning on dual exhaust?

dual outlet, but on the same side so like side by side and an angle out, im gonna look at what sizes are available, im thinking of changing the muffler to a hushpower DBX, i heard the Xrs with it on youtube, it sounds perfect, does the Xrs and Xr sound similar with an aftermarket muffler?
