Have you looked at the official lowered thirdgen thread. Look just a few posts down from this one on this suspension board. LOTS of pics in there.

Im leaning towards the sportlines just worried the drop will be too much n not be able to get passengers on or have to low of a stance it will be scraping the undercarriage everywere.
