Can I also suggest that you get the rear exhaust pipes readjusted so that they actually poke out a wee bit, much like the Euro spec..

As for lowering, I think dropped but not as much as your Lava will really work.. and spacers to really get the wheels blinging. I used to hate my wheels until I got the spacers, made such a difference.

I never considered gloss black Badges. ~added to wishlists~

Gloss black are easy to get and in some cases relatively cheap.

Some actual pictures in the pictures thread!

Door ding fixed and ceramic coat redone.
Grabbed a couple of shots in the detail shop inspection light booth.

20%. Gives a nice look, blocks out significant UV and heat, doesn't impair night vision and (even though not technically legal) doesn't draw toooo much attention from the cops.

VERY, VERY nice. That ceramic coat thing is interesting.

It is relatively new tech here. Been around the UK for a while though so there was plenty of info. I dug into it pretty deep because it isn't cheap. It has worked as advertised so far though so I am impressed.

If looking for a slow green car they won't pay attention to me then!

Looks really nice. Now that you got it ceramic coated I suppose Canada can go into "lockdown"...

Add bigger brakes and it'll be "perfect" (should've been factory option)

Canada has been in lockdown for almost two weeks. Car detailing is apparently an essential service here.

Don't need to be bigger (for me) but yes I am going to something to change the colour of those calipers. They stand out horribly against the bronze wheels. Don't want red or yellow though so probably just some black paint.

You are kidding right?? I suppose cop cars and ambulances need the coating so that the virus doesn't cling onto the paint...
