BE ADVISED ....... those wheels are NOT included ....... :D

But they look great and are only $200 a rim. So many pot holes on Cali now, you don't want expensive rims.:cheers:

It's okay, I ordered some rims today. Originally was gonna get something else but those were on back order with no ETA so the boys at FT86motorsports switched my order to enkei raijins in hyper silver, which was a $138 difference but they covered it even though I offered to pay. Good bunch

Good looking rims ........ but, $1,000 per set ....... good looking ??....... :eyebulge:

Back before even "mag wheels", we used to pride ourselves with fancy full hub caps.

Which, made more sense ...... because you put them on steel rims, which would retain wheel strength. Another advantage is that if they got stolen, you could still drive the car ...... :D

Haha stolen or rollin down the road after a particularly sharp turn.

Actually that's considered kind of low end. I got a quote on some BBS rims and they were $800 a piece. Then there are some that are even more than that. But on a daily driver parked outside that's silly.

Oh, well, now ya, ....... we could get fancy back in the day .... too ...... :happyanim:

Repainted bumper on!
 

Installed my repainted bumper today!

Pretty happy with how it turned out given how it was before -- 70k worth of rock chips, scrapes, bruises, sloppy touch up, spider cracks, etc.

Now scheduling a time to apply Xpel! ;)

I am considering those on my FR-S. I have a set of brand new 225/40-18 tires laying around.

just got these bad boys in yesterday! Cant wait to put them on! but does anyone know what that silver paper is supposed to be used for?

Probably heat wrap. Not sure if you would wrap the pipes or wrap your intake/things near the pipes though. Suggest you ask the vendor because I could see the pipes being too hot for something like that. Header pipes get insanely hot

Oil pan heat shield. Header will close enough to the oil pan. Which tune you went?

Im gonna do the stage 2 UEL 93oct from OFT.

I think you're going to like that setup, I had that before I went FI. :D Put the heat shield on the oil pan and if you have left over, cover your thermostat housing too.
