Funny you asked that. The 1st drive I took, at low speeds, it felt like the car was handling funny. Then today I took an hour long trip at highway speeds and it was fine.

I can't speak for the wind noise because I always feel the car is loud at high speeds anyway so I drown it out with music

Considering I've been WFH all year since the pandemic started with no end in site for me to go back into a physical location, yet. I figure I'd swap out a very clean denso filter for a K&N because, reasons.

I also decided to put my front plate back on since it is the law. I've already had a few close calls and several looks from local law enforcement, figure it would be a matter of time. Plus, I'd rather them not bother me with the vehicle tint

I am hoping la Nina will be a snowy one too in Canada. I need to test out the new winters!


Triple Beam goodness

Surprised at how thin the filter is. My K&N on my other vehicles didn't look this thin.

Swapped out my 20in TSW Bathurst for my 19in Leon Hardiritt Bugels. Leon Hardiritt on top TSW on bottom. Need to get the faces on the Leon hardiritt painted a different color to get the faces to pop

Ebay lol. It's actually made for F Sports but a some people put this lip on their non F Sports and I liked the look. Look up front lip for GS350, I believe it was an L- style lip and the seller was Baysonr. I couldn't bring myself to spend big money on a lip that's only gonna get scraped on lol. Good priced, little over 100 shipped to me in Hawaii.

I love wheels with a lip. I've painted wheels with a dark charcoal metallic and it makes the edges reflect light. Neat effect and still keeps the wheels dark....

Are you on static suspension? Or air? That's insane if you're that low on a static suspension. I air up the front at every driveway so I rarely ever scrape my lip.

Im on air but my driveway has a steep incline. With my 20s I had no problem going up at a little angle but with my 19s I seriously have to angle hard going up otherwise the lip will scrape a little. I need to adjust the height if the shock more higher to get that extra clearance.
