I know you considered selling your V bars before because of the knock issue and then decided against it and trying again. What was the result? Did you end up not being able to resolve the knock issue?

Also, as for the JDM tS interior pieces. I personally prefer them over the silver USDM pieces that come in our cars. I obviously still have some silver from the AC knobs and the like but to me it's definitely an improvement.

Let me know if you have any other questions! Thanks @Ethereal05
I decided to keep them because I really love how they look and personally it feels like the car is more planted with them on. I am not running them daily as I was unable to figure out what the knocking issue was. I did test each of them individually and it only occurs when they are being ran together. Really odd. I'll likely put them on for shows. Hmmm, I like the contrast with the silver accents but I also think the black goes with the blue/black theme I am going for. Also I have a few small scuffs on my pieces from the previous owner so it would be nice to replace them. Easy to install? Perhaps I will look for your car at a local show so I can take a look at it in person. =)
