I just turned in my second leased 500e (I had a 2013 and a 2017). I live in LA, where there are lots of cars available at pretty low prices as they come off lease, and I'd planned on buying one. But, believe it or not, somehow Fiat's transformation away from the 500 series generally escaped me...

got this idea from the VW forums. it's a pretty fun thread and as more and more people get their 500s and more aftermarket support is available, it'll get better. if it's already on here, i missed it and feel free to delete this. I ordered a 4300k HID kit today.

Know any good Level 2 chargers to recommend? I'm going to install it outdoors, and hope to stay around a $600 price point, or less. I've been looking at the ChargePoint brand, just because they have some extra features and look nicer than a generic utility box. What else is out there?

Started to happen on my car around 85,000...when I had my fiat at the studio for a repair I was told the software update to fix it is only good until 80,000...I chose not to pay the stealership any more of my $ and am thinking of just putting electrical tape over it until my next deductible is...

I want to lower my fiat 500e. I don't know if anyone has done this, experience, and/or advice. I've looked at the Madness 2" drop: http://shop.500madness.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=477 but I'm not sure if they are rated for the weight. Any advise or tips would be helpful.
