I always jack up front and back not on the sides. And the spot in front is pretty far in there and now that i have the lip kit thank god i have my jack bc i think the one u have is too short. It would hit the lip before reaching the spot. Same goes for the back since my exhaust is so weird with that cross pipe and all i need it longer and shorter

I drive my car up onto 1/2" thick pieces of plywood for jack clearance.

LOL or you can do that



And for those of you that guessed what was next on the list of carbon fiber stuff:

APR alternator cover. With a little modification to fit the Takeda intake.

I don't know why I woke up this morning with the thought of getting two of each color frs together and lay them out in a certain configuration to take a picture from a high vantage point.

I wonder what age group will be the cut off to have no idea what the heck that is.

I am 24 and know its the Power Rangers guy, but how many probably think its a transformer.

Voltron, Defender of the Universe!

Cartoon from the mid-80's when it was popular to take Japanese robot shows and slice them up to make new "American" shows.

I remember watching some Voltron reruns when I was a kid, to anyone who did, my recommendation is don't try and watch it now, it doesn't hold up very well.

I almost bought a mint in box Voltron from the 80s on a popular auction website. 350$

It was the toy I wanted and never got.

I bet our cars can secretly connect to form an army of Earth protecting robots. They just need to update the ECU. LOL

"and I'll form the head"!
