That's not a bad price at all for premium emblems. Are they metal? And are they as simple as removing the old badges, and then throwing the new badges into the install holes? Thank you for the link btw!!

Replaced exhaust from back of OP to the butt.


Now:
2.5" Berk Tech catted FP (I'll lose the cat on the HKS header if I change it or go AVO Turbo.
2.5" Perrin resonated cat back.


Was:
60mm (2.36") inVidia resonated FP
2"/2.25" Resonated (it comes that way) TRD cat back.


Few weeks ago:
Added Crawford power billet blocks (yes they improved TQ/HP all through the power band.)

Got the factory fill oil outta there. Break-in oil/filter change just short of 1k miles.

Just finished installing a silicone intake hose and Apexi filter.

Not sure if it has been mentioned on here, but I've seen some folks wonder about which way the filter goes. On the Apexi, one corner of the filter extends a bit farther than the others and has less radius. If you look at the airbox, you'll see it has the same type corner on one side. Doesn't jump right out at you, but if you look, it's obvious. Thought I would throw that out there in case someone does a search for Apexi and has any issues installing it.

One side of the Apexi filter has the Apexi logo on it - that is the one that goes outward, or faces towards you as you're at the front of the car doing the installation (what you'd see when you first open the air box).

I at first had issues installing it because I followed a DIY (can't remember who made it as I've had my Apexi drop-in filter for months now) where the person demonstrating the installation actually puts it in backwards, or has the air box all rotated so it isn't that intuitive for someone doing an installation like that for the first time. It had me confused for awhile, and I didn't understand why the Logo got put on a side that you don't see when you open up the box, then I realized that the way the guy was demonstrating it in the DIY was off.

I have a feeling that's why some people have difficulty with the installation - great product though. I love my Apexi high-flow drop-in filter.

edit: edited for clarification.

Staying on topic - not today but yesterday I changed my cabin air filter, and got one of the Ekosha Squash-scented air freshener for the car. I've never had an air freshener in any of my cars before, but I really like this one so far. It smells subtle, clean, and reminds me of the Japanese soft candy with the marble soda flavor! The dispenser for it looks pretty slick too.

Right, but I didn't even pay attention to which way the logo faced (you're right though, the logo does face the front of the car). I just looked at the corners of the filter and air box. With the corners of both made the way they are, there's no way to actually get it in there and closed (without great force and warping) unless you match those corners, it can't fit backwards (easily).

Today I received this, and will be changing in the next week.


And Thursday I got my windows tinted, which was pretty much all I've done since I'd gotten the car. Been really busy every since I got it. (3-4 weeks now)

[Sirsimon]

Ordered a Nameless over/front-pipe combo (catted), in preparation for my upcoming supercharger install.

[poison1916]

Parked it squarely in front of a beer festival. People pointing the whole day. Was great.
