Default Everything else fits fine. The center ones are flat and do not wrap around the ends.

Default That is an absolute perfect ride height. I think it's great.

Any lower and it would look bad.

Also, I do have the aluminum trim, I just didn't have a chance to go outside last night and feel it to see whether it was real or more a faux finish.

Just another idea I have up my sleeve.

Default Yes and NO! It is aluminum UNDER the ruberized coating.

Not the best picture of it but this is the trim with the rubber stuff sanded off and clear coated. Look at the passenger door and you can see the "brushed" effect and the lack of checker board look of the factory trim.

Real brushed aluminum looks better.
