Yours had holes predrilled?
I bought one just to check it out and it didnt have any of the holes made.
Yours does seem to line up better than the one i got a year ago.

yes it had holes pre-drilled. It didn't help because I had to drill like 4 additional holes to get it to line up straight. I tried just using the predrilled holes and it was WAY off.

Default Kuda mount

Hey which kuda mount did you get for the controller? And did the tire pressure light come on? Thanks. Nice car!

I've been on hiatus from upgrades for awhile but 2019 has some things coming. I've been back and forth on alot of things, thought about selling the car and thought about getting something else. It's been such a great car for me and it would be foolish to let it go.

New carbon fiber lip on since I wrecked my old one. Same skipper-style but in CF. More stuff on the way.

Thanks! I got it from an eBay seller “spec-m”. Fitment is okay, 9/10. The pre-drilled holes on the tabs were a little off but not too bad. The previous lip had more fitment issues.

Test fitting my new rear diffuser by mv tuning before it heads to paint.



Unfortunately, upon unwrapping the diffuser it looks like it was damaged in transit. I’ve reached out to mv tuning and they will take care of it. Great customer service.

Car looks great! Especially on bags..I didn’t get them since I wanted to be a little different and stick to the original JDM style so I got coilovers, but my front bumper is paying the price for that now lol. Gotta tough it out for a bit more especially since they cost me $850. Eventually I will switch especially since I’m digging your setup 👌🏽

Thanks! The air suspension will always be my favorite mod. Trust me, you won’t regret it.

Hey, what did you use to paint your lip? I just got a lip and my car is also SLM. Thanks!

the first lip was initially painted by me (primer, paint, gloss) but over time it chipped so I had a friend who owns a body shop redo it for me. It came out great, but a couple months ago I hit something on the freeway that made a huge crack on it. That’s why I replaced it with the new cf one.
