Looks great, makes the stock wheels look much better too. Do you plan on getting an alignment? If so, where is a good place to go here?

Well I work at Sherwood Chev, so I could if I wanted to but I haven't decided. I did a check and they don't look too far out, bit of toe but less than .8*. Thinking I'll wait until I get wheels and fully dial in right where I want it to get an alignment.

I'm in boxer battle, there is another track day this Monday at three flags, anyone going? I know I am!

The question is do I run my rotas which are a lot lighter than stock but have less tread? Tires are Continental Pros (I think that's the model) 225/45/17 on a 17x7.5

Also keep in mind my rotas are still for sale for $1000 with the tires

Just debating between having my headers ceramic coated or just wrapping them. I've read a few debates between the two and the pros and cons with both


Ceramic Coating Pros:

. Better heat shield and protection
. Looks better than wrap

Cons:

. Cost - $250 - $275
. Does not address the known rattles with the flex joints on the Borla


Titanium Header Wrap Pros:

. Good heat shield and protection
. Addresses the known rattles on flex joints
. Cost - $30 - $60

Cons:

. Not as good as ceramic
. Potential issues with moisture - [Shouldn't be an issue with our cars with the skid plate to keep water off the header]
. Oil spill on header wrap could be potentially bad for a fire


Post your thoughts! Thanks

You can drive if you have parental consent or a legal guardian with you as far as I know.

Popped down to Show & Shine over lunch hour. Alot of nice rides! Spotted 2015 WRB in parking area, not the show. Now having seen it in person, I really like the blue stitching, however not a fan of the blue leather and the painted red brakes. It appears to be driven on grids, hense all the dust inside wheels and rear bumper. Everything else looked good. No FRS or BRZ in show that I could see
