stock suspension will rub on his wheels and tires. I almost couldn't fit my 17x9 +40 wrapped in 245's on the stock suspension.

That looks AWESOME! I love it! I plan on doing this, but I can't for the life of me find the right DIY for this. If you can link me, it'd be great! I want to do this on my tails.

That looks great. Nice alternative for those that don't want redded lenses.

i followed this DIY

taking out the sidemarker is pretty easy actually. there is a little glue that can be heated up with just a hair dryer and it snaps off.

How good is the night vision on it?

Here you go.

The picture quality is great. Much better than most aftermarket units. I've tried them in the past on other cars and they never compared to OEM.

The grid lines are centered as well at the default setting.

Here are some more pics. Hope this helps.

New wheels

Installed a set of Ray's 57Getters in matt gray. Square setup at 18X9.5 40 offset with 255/35 Michelin PSS. I put FEAL coil overs on so they would fit and dropped the car 30mm.

Where did you get your wheels? Those are the same wheels I'd like to get.

Here you go my friend...




Also just finished installing my Tomei60S, Motiv Concepts Overpipe, and the FT86SpeedFactory exhaust hole cover. Throttle response has improved and is noticeable. IMO, the power band from low to mid rpm is much smoother with this Motiv Overpipe. The quality and fitment is top notch as well.

My exhaust setup currently consists of stock header, Motiv overpipe, Invidia catless resonated front pipe, and Tomei60S. I was surprised on cold start, idle, and driving overall, it is much quieter than what I had expected. When I had just stock header, stock overpipe, Invidia front pipe, stock midpipe, and Berk dual tip muffler delete, it was very loud.

I'm very pleased with both products. Tomei, Motiv, and FT86SpeedFactory =

Got my emblem stickers all the way from Ukraine. Nice to finally cover up the empty hole from the XXR cap.
