I do like the color though and cant wait for you to paint the fenders.
I wish we had a mudflap option, I made some but never installed them because they looked funny.

Mind if I ask what you used in lieu of the reverse light bar?

Were the pieces pretty good quality in terms of fitment? Looks great man.

They provide a little led light to replace the reverse light however it's not bright at all. My brake lights are far more effective at lighting my path at night than that little light is, and most people don't even notice it down there when it's on. I plan on replacing it with something much brighter in the future.

You have to wrestle with the fenders a bit, especially the rears, but that's just because they're bulky and aren't perfectly contoured for the car. Since being on the car, the flares come off and go back on super easy now because they've molded to flow with the fenders now. The lip, side skirts, diffuser and wing fit really good.

Question: What kind of rear camber adjustment was needed in order to get this fitment. LCA, or any upper control arm adjustment?

Not sure if I'd have the same luck with ebay specials.
Where did you purchase your spacers? I've been trying to find 30mm 5x100 to 5.114 conversion spacer but no luck. Id rather not run two spacers on top of each other

Not a whole lot has happened lately but I have taken a ton more pics lol so here you guys go.

My previous cars at their best with the bunny


Misjudged a parking stop -__- took a nice chunk of the lip out. Luckily you can't see it without getting under the car, and luckily it's still going to get painted so I'll just have them fix it when the time comes.


Took the old girl out to Vegas one weekend






Caught this massive nasty razor blade a few weeks back. I caught it a few houses down from my driveway but it still managed to get pushed half way into the tire. Luckily, it didn't puncture. Never had a leak haha


Went the Honda dealer one day because my boy needed an oil filter but while I was there I decided to have some from with my friends and instagram followers so I posted this pic saying I got some unexpected news and traded the RB in lol. Surprisingly a lot of people thought I was telling the truth haha.


Just random snaps

Nice pics, I like the one with the coat of rain/water on it. I think a layer of dust/fresh rain makes the DGM look meaner...especially in bunny form.

I had some bird haters one day.. they totally riddled my car in a parking spot wide open with no trees, wires or buildings above it in the matter of a few hours.



Took some better/brighter pics of my phone mount for you guys as well as the magnet on the phone itself.



Happen to run into a follower/fan at a gas station one night and she really wanted to take pics haha pretty wild.



On the way to work one morning(literally less than a mile commute) I manage to catch a nasty screw that fully punctured my tire. Luckily, I was able to get it patched in the meantime until I get some spare for new rear tires as it is time to replace them.



I also crossed 10k sometime before the new year.



Rocket Bunny Problems


Make sure your girl squats


Randomly jumped on eBay one day and managed to find Toyota smartkey covers ONLY for sale(instead of the whole key) so I jumped on that asap. Looks SOO much better than the Scion emblem. All I need is to source a certain corolla/rav4/camry airbag cover and I will be rid of all the Scion badges once and for all


This is what I have been dealing with as of recently. For a month or two, I've noticed a rattle at a certain RPM but after inspecting I was unable to source the rattle other than being general pipe shaking at a specific RPM. Well fast forward to last weekend and I drove out to vegas with a full car there and back so about 400mi round trip. After I got back I could hear an exhaust leak so I got under the car to check it out and found this..




The bracket on my ARK Performance test pipe broke clean off. I imagine before it fully broke, that was what was rattling but I didn't notice. Once I fully removed the bracket from the car, it was no longer covering most of the hole, so now my car sounds HORRIBLE lol. Someone else had the same issue with their test pipe but just bought another one from another brand. However I spoke with ARK and will be going down to their shop tomorrow to either get it fixed or replaced, so that's pretty cool. I'll check back in after to let you guys know what happened.
