I'm usually the "Santa," so I normally do not get big gifts. I did get a Gucci money clip to replace my very old Coach one.

Brother #1 got a PS4
Brother #2 got a Pioneer double din HU
Sister got a Michael Kors purse
Cousin got a gift certificate to tint all the windows in her IS250 including front windows with the new ceramic film
Mom got a remote start for her car
Nephew got a Vista to go along with his dad's PS4
Friends received digital picture frames
Other cousins from out of states were given clothes
Cousin's kids received bunch of toys/video games/clothes

Yes, I enjoy giving more and seeing their reactions rather than receiving. I could have purchased a nice SC kit lol!

I'd install the Pro-Kit and see how you like it. I have Sportlines but after having them for a few months I would've rather went with Pro-Kit. The ride is much harsher with Sportlines, and plus you need rear LCA's as well...AND there's a lot of times where the rear just looks too saggy. I wish my car sat just a little higher.

You get better ride quality, less additional parts needed, plus a good drop with Pro-Kit. Not to mention scraping my bumper on the slightest incline with Sportlines. Just my opinion. And believe me, unless you are changing out the shocks as well, Sportlines will ruin your ride quality. It so damn annoying bouncing around for every tiny bump on the highway. After a while I can block it out, but if I ride in my friends car and then go back to mine it feels horrible.

Anyways, just a few things to consider before making the switch. If you plan on getting rear LCA's and upgraded shocks then Sportlines will be good. If not, go with Pro-Kit.

I got a lot of excellent gifts. Most important, I had quality down time with my family. I am not modding my car until she is paid off. Glad everyone was able to add some goodies to their 86.

I got a bunch of quality time with my extended family and amazing food, but unfortunately my wife got sick and had to stay home and be bored.

We had an excellent time learning to fly some basic/trainer quadcopters around! I've at least gotten to where I can usually hover and go in the direction I want to go. . .

The FR-S got from my family: JPM Alcantara speaker panels (installed today, excellent!) and MTEC shift springs (just arrived today, will pick up and install tomorrow). My family also got for my garage a jack and creeper.

I ordered for her the JPM Alcantara console panels and LED clear side markers. I'm debating whether it makes sense right now to go a bit big and also get either wheels/tires or Borla catback/diffuser.

I spend a little more than $3k a few months ago for suspension, wheels & tires for the BRZ. So I just wrote that off as my early Christmas present. Besides that, I got some cash, hoodies, tools, & a few other misc items. To me, Christmas isn't about the gifts anymore, but enjoying a day off with my family & friends!
