I recall thinking the sides were a little more glossy when they were off the car but I just went out and couldn't really tell in the rain. Next time they are dry I will take another look.

Well I wont be driving mine for another 2 months :-(, I fractured my shoulder where my rotator cuff ligament attaches, so I can't shift, and it wont be usable for 2ish months. leh sigh*. It should be healed before autocross season so that's all that matters.

Got a Panlong Bluetooth OBD2 adapter and friends out the Torque Pro app. I would definitely recommend it, very cool app with a lot of awesome features.

Got an alignment done. Nothing fancy, I'm still on full stock suspension and decided not to go for camber bolts yet so this was just to straighten out the wheels from factory. Front wheels were originally at -1/4" and +7/32" so that got zeroed out

installed Ebay replica lip. fitment was "ok", 1 side didn't fully wrap around the front bumper so I had to trim it. but for 43$ it looks pretty good.

Have you noticed a big difference in handling or steering with those?

I’m in search of a used Perrin 2.5” resonates or Corsa exhaust. No one wants to get rid of them!!

Thank you.

Yes a lot. It's making me drive a little more aggressive quite honestly. Aside from the very loud road noise from the tires. The car feels great and more fun to drive compared to stock tires.
