Default Lower or Shave?

Im deciding what to do....i can either wait and buy a drop kit and go ahead and get my tailgate repainted flip kit and top cap removed or i can wait to buy the drop kit and not have the tailgate redone....if i do the tailgate its gonna run me about 250 i think and it can be done by the end of this week prolly but the drop kit that would probally take awhile to get in then i gotta go put it on....im going to get a rhino lining for my birthday most likely so im going to get it sprayed on the flip kit so it can blend in.....any suggestion's on which one i should do first? tailgate shaved and no drop or drop no tailgate shaved? i cant decide

lower it - great starting point to work off of - then any of the other mods will complement your lowered stance

I'd say do the tailgate first...especially since you're planning on getting a spray in liner. I would get anything that you want done to the bed finished BEFORE you do a spray in. JMHO.
