Default Quick little update:

So I decided to peel off my rear diffuser and plastidip it black and gloss it afterwards. I installed it back and it looks a lot better. No greyish PU color anymore, I also removed the 3M tape all the way around and sanded the back of it so its smoother and decided to simply screw it on to the bumper. I would recommend this way more than the 3m tape. Honestly the fitment is so much better and looks so mch cleaner without 3m taps. Screws are the way to go!

Default They're Here!!!

My coilovers have arrived after a speedy 12 days, shout out to Circuit Motorsports for making this process so easy and simple. You guys should always hit them up for your suspension related needs! The springs are 12kg in front and 10kg in the rear, hopefully installing them this friday with a buddy of mine whos dropped a few XE20s already!



The packaging was super protected and everything!














Final pic of the attrocious wheel gap in front, as well as a quick wheel appreciation post. Gotta say I love these wheels, they look so fresh and keep in touch for a color change on these bad boys!

If you didn't pick some up yet, might I recommend some "extenders" for use in the trunk. I LOVE mine!

Default It's Lowered!!!

After 5 hours of work, and annoying control arm bolts, I finally lowered it. No more 4x4 status. The front is 4 inches from bottoming out, and the back is 3 inches. I think I'm going to lower the front another half inch. No rubbing issues at all! The rear tuck is so beautiful and I'm so happy it's all coming together! Let me know what you guys think!
