I can now confirm that the Pilot Super Sports are much easier to hold in a continuous drift. With the Primacies on the front it was prone to understeer.

they see me rollin', they hatin'

Seriously though. The stickers are fine. You stick anything you want on there. But anytime anyone installs gaudy spoilers, hoodscoops, exhaust pipes, etc. it should function first and then you get a pass for the look.

This sticker is dangerous and inconvenient, but I do love fig newtons.

Put on my nameless axleback with 5inch mufflers. Compared it with @BCooke Perrin catback. Love the sound of both.

Can't wait! Yes, most people think waxing their paint is enough but they forget about the plastics on their car (headlights, taillights, pillars, etc). I basically opti-coated the taillights so then they would last longer and prevent plastic fading in the long run. The ocd's of a detailer, it is a curse...

I get them from my supplier in bulk orders. But you can buy it straight from Amazon for retail price of $73.99.
