Looks like toothpaste. But it looks like they did a great job, in for better detail in pics.

If the toothpaste is mint green then perfect!

Turns out the RainX window cleaner I've been using isn't sticker friendly. I tried to put an 86 on the window and it fell off.
I stuck it to my air compressor in the garage.

I have one sticker on that I put there before the RainX.

So here is a recommendation from @CSG Mike in the track related questions thread which is corroborated by several other folks. 57 pages of track knowledge from several good sources:


Start with -3.0 front, -2.0 rear, zero toe front, 1/16" total toe-in rear. Adjust toe based on how the car feels to you, and camber via pyrometer.

The actual temps will go up as you drive, the goal is to make the spread of temperatures as small as possible.

Outer edge higher = need more camber. Inner edge higher = need less camber

Center too high = lower pressure. Center too low = lower pressure

Inner higher than outer and center = need less toe (if you can manage it)

38 hot is a good guide; adjust to taste and by temp


Credit to Mike! Thanks man!

Great advise. I am running 1/32" toe in, cold psi of 31 front which picked up my psi to 37.8 hot, rear is now 1/16th toe in and I adjusted Temps after reading this. Now 33 cold and 37 hot.

Now, I haven't track tested these settings and expect it to change based off different tires and levels of assertiveness, but for standard city driving, it feels less likely to step out.

I hate these stock tires.

I also run 1/32 total -toe in the rear and 0 in the front. I have ran 1/16th total toe in the rear but prefer 1/32 for street use. Rear camber is -2.5 and front -1.5 for street use. Keep in mind if you drive a lot and the track is only something you occasionally attend that toe and camber can eat tires pretty quick if using a good compound on the street. The best thing to do if you want the best of both worlds is to have a track setup and then a street setup otherwise there will always be compromises in each scenario.

1/16" won't eat much tire at all.

We run 0 toe on our car, but most people perceive it to be "too loose".

Finally found some time to put sound deadner in the door panels to get rid of the rattle. Used a lot less that I thought I was going to need. Took away 90% of the noise. Just ordered some lowering springs yesterday too!
