I read it somewhere on this forum. Tomorrow when the windows get dewey and the sun dries them up, I'll see if it worked.

As for my new lip... LOL, stock height and I still scrape going from some parking lots on to the street. I don't know how guys in lowered cars do it!

Just saw your car in a video, 2017 AVAE BBQ, really digging the red stripe. I usually don't like any kind of decals or vinyl on cars. Got me debating trying it out on mine but ain't no where near as modded.

I also scrapped like hell at stock height getting better at it though. I even lost my lip on the expressway but was able to recover it. Luckily no damage to my car or any others. Recently got it repaired by a friend, he filled in the areas that were scrapped to hell. Once I got it back I gave it a couple layers of plastidip to hide the lines from sanding it down before putting it back on. Just have the side skirts to add but can't figure out how to mount them. I should've​ looked into that during my spring break vacation but oh well back to work tomorrow.

guys I'm having a problem with my car and i don't wanna start a new thread just yet. A week ago i tried driving my car and it would not go into gear at all, i had to put an ungodly amount of force to get it into gear and even then it would only go into 3rd or 4th, r,1,2,5 and 6 were not useable, the car shifted fine when the engine was not running, to me this screamed throwout bearing however, and heres what i don't get, i managed to get it into 1st and just didn't stop at all for a while and when everything warmed up it shifted perfectly, I don't know what to do and I haven't driven the car since that night. I thought maybe water froze on the shifter bushing but that wouldn't explain why it shifted with the car off. I haven't had any anomalies with the car before it started doing that, no missed shifts, no grinding, no stalling, it just started doing this all of a sudden, any help would be appreciated and my warranty is not valid if it helps

I hope you feel ashamed of yourselves

In honor of my car's second anniversary, and in particular of having just reached 60,000 miles, I splurged on some track-prep items.

Openflash Tablet
Openflash Header 3 w/overpipe
Stoptech stainless steel brakelines
Motul 600 high-temp brake fluid
GrimmSpeed master cylinder brace

There is much goodness here, but I blame you guys for getting me hooked on mods.

Thanks! No build thread yet, but maybe I'll start one now that I'm planning to track the car this summer. This purchase was financed with this year's tax refund. Next year I'll go with wheels and tires.

lol I did the opposite?
I put on the perrin cold air 3 days after purchase (got a crazy deal from a member here)
PBM coilovers went on 2 months later.
1 year later I got my wheels (mounting tires this Saturday)


next is headers and tune, maybe beef up brakes.
who knows after that. maybe there will be an ITB kit out by then??? ITB and cams is my ultimate goal.


YES! you need a build thread!
