That exhaust looks really stupid. Should have been twin tip like a Porsche GT3 or trapezoid like a Koenigsegg.

I finally saw a 2017 86 in person the other day. I still think the new bumpers are ugly and I'm not a fan of the new LED lights, but I'll admit the car looks much better in person than in photos.

Oh, you're able to service the individual LEDs on the JDM/EDM/Monogram headlights? I didn't know that. I thought they were sealed inside the headlight.

Alright, you got me. I should have quantified & clarified what I meant by "modified". I was thinking really basic things just to even up the playing field (ex. TRD 86). Or at least have the same...

If you want a non-raising camber plate, Velox will be your only other choice. HVT used to be an option, but AFAIK they are no longer in business, although you might be able to pick up a used set.
