Car is looking so good man! Did you say your headlights were basically just an LED not actual HIDs? :O

Hi! Nice car you got there... I really love the way that front lip looks

I googled "EK front lip" but a bunch of different ones came up. Would you be so kind to post the exact model or part no. ? I'd really appreciate it

Yeah man, they are the Opt7 LED "flux beams". good clean light. the only issue I have is that I have to run with my lights on all time or else the DRL function causes the lights to do a highspeed flickering/flashing. that is just barely noticeable, but enough to annoy me haha.

As always thanks for the love, bruh! :D

it was a "stubby" one i just purchased off Amazon. I believe it is 2" long one.

it certainly affects the signals but I rarely use the radio anyway.

Terrence is right. It's literally one of those cheap ones off ebay. was like 20 bucks or so.

Wth, that's weird. Might as well go with some DDM Tuning HIDs! Have had them on all of the cars I've owned so far. No complaints. But no problem bro!!

Just realized i never came back and put in an update.

I've installed RealCamber -3 camber shims about a month ago or so. Overall the fitment is getting closer to what I'm looking for. Next up with be Swift Springs and/or new tires. Haven't figured out where I'll get those funds yet.

thanks buu. yeah need some swifts and some 55 or 50 tires. I may be able to get lower as is if I opt for camber bolts up front and grind the front fender to bumper tab a bit more. needs a little grinding. but getting there.

Ahh yeah if you keep these wheels you'd be good with a 55 or 50 series tire. Just throw 2 camber bolts on each side in the front to get max adjustability.

tadakun · 05-02-2016, 10:55 AM

Did some adjusting to get rid of the slight rake I had. Ended up removing the locking ring on the coil perch and just bottom out the height adjustment ring. Also turned one of the wheel spacers down to 3.5mm thick to even out the offset from the beam. Much happier with the fit.

I think this will do until I can switch out the tires for lower profile. ;)
