    What suspension upgrades has anyone done and what was the difference? What part and what brand did you add? Did you do it yourself? How difficult was it?

    TIA

    Front and md chassis under-braces are the simplest and easiest to install.

    Just remove and bolt on.....you don't even have to jack up the car, in most cases.

    Did you notice any difference in handling?

    I'm a big fan of the TRD rear anti-roll bar upgrade. I also have both the front and mid bars. Some people go for the lowered look with new springs. Either from Toyota (TRD) or aftermarket brands. Since my 2010 bottoms out on the smallest curbs/dips it can't see wanting to lower the car.

    But, the biggest change would come from replacement high-performance tires.
