Default My 2015 F Sport

Bought this certified F Sport a couple months ago, and of course I can’t leave anything alone, so this is what I ended up with.u

Loving the blacked out chrome doors. What did you use for that?

also, I think a set of GS F tail lights would really set it off

I don't think anyone has been able to properly get the 16+ GS taillights to work with 15 or below models.

I had the chrome wrapped in vinyl, replaced the emblems with black pearl ones, and I painted the exhaust trim myself.

A few people have, does not require much work from what I remember just re-wiring.

I am so stuck between going for the CV5s vs. the CV3R. I really can't decide between the split 5 spoke and the non split. They booth look so good. It marginally helps seeing the CV5s on your car though, really looks great as does the drop.

I guess I'm leaning towards CV3s tho since CV5s are no longer made, but let me know if you have any thoughts of selling yours in case you want to go with something else.

from what I can see, probably not as the wheel package is not overly aggressive. wheel size/offset, drop, and tire sizing all contribute to rubbing.

car looks great!
