I would scratch the stickers IMO.
The wheels look too good to add anything to.

What size RPF1's are they?
The fitment is perfect.

Dude, awesome build!

Just a guess on the wheels: 18x9 +35, though i could be wrong.

yea the stickers are kinda growing on me, gives it a little contrast since the tire, wheel, and wheel well are all black.

wheels are 18x9.5 +38

its been a pretty slow 3rd month of ownership, just got a couple things:

sold my cusco front strut bar with mc and brace bars to purchase an aem strut bar and aem intake



picked up some rpf1 center caps off craigslist



got an exhaust from my good friends at speed element!



swung by bayson motorsports and picked up an oem replica diffuser



here's how they look installed



now waiting for these parts to get installed

Just curious, why did you sell the Cusco Strut Tower Brace and go with the AEM?

Car is soooooo sick dude! I love it. I'm thinking about the same wheel size/tires for my brz. Does the car handle better with your setup? Also, how low are you? I'm thinking of lowering the car no more than 1.5 inches for functional purposes.

just pure aesthetics. I like the 1-piece design of the aem, plus the blue from the cusco's were clashing too much with my red car.

thanks bro. handling is pretty good, i loved the maneuverability it had with the stock setup but with my setup now it definitely feels more planted, so to speak. but yea i have a 1-finger drop from tire to fender all around so it's pretty low, the good thing about it is though it doesn't rub at all.
