Some good news...Some bad

Well the good news is that my sport bumper arrived finally after 3 months. In perfect shape nonetheless.





JDM rainguards came in as well...



The bad news is either JHOT or UPS cheesedicked the packing/shipping of the headliner I bought...
It was shipped with a piece of cardboard and bubble wrap over the top and stuck on a pallette. If they were smart they would have shipped it in a large box so thered be at least bufferzone in case of impacts during shipping. I was out of the country when it was delivered. So when I got back this is what I found after unwrapping...

The New Stance....

So after 3 months of waiting (for camber plates) I finally got my coilovers installed. The car feels so much more planted and responsive. Bilsteins are a very streetable coilover...

Front: -2deg camber
Rear: -1deg
0 toe all around











Oh and Thanks to Atlas(RS25.com) I was finally able complete my faux Carbon fiber delete project....STI shift **** and CF badge courtesy of Celtic Motorsports

Must be an optical illusion. The vents fit better than any replicas Ive seen and their job is to channel hot air OUT of the engine bay. The intake draws its air from the fenderwell...

and yes i knew the hot air is channeled out. i use to have 22b vents before i got my cf hood. and i always realized after a drive than the vents were producing an airway for the hot air in the engine bay to come out of

was just wondering about the left one being skinnier than the right. oh well.
