My Review Of the JDM Underbody Panel Kit sold by FT86SF

Ups:
Fits perfectly.
MUCH quieter ride. Surprisingly effective.
5 MPH gain in top speed. (not really)
Downs:
Shipped with standard 8 mm hex nuts when factory uses locking flange nuts. I added my own washers and tightened gently over plastic parts using blue loctite.

Needs 3 mm-tall spacers or new screws with taller shoulders for the six forward-most shoulder screws. Fully tightening the originals over a double layer of fiber board will destroy the boards. I also finger-tightened these after applying blue loctite.
