I should have probably pointed out the disk leaves no mark whatsoever. I had that installed on another car before this one. There is zero sign of anything.

That looks great. Does it interfere with the drive mode ****?

New tires!

For the record I had to change due to 2 sidewall punctures...after 14K miles I showed no premature wear on the fronts...

Keeping fingers crossed for the new rubber:

You may be thinking of the regular Pilots. The All Season version has a 540 treadwear rating.

I got 38k out of my Pilot Sport 5's on my Mazda 6 and there was still over 2mm of tread depth (legal limit here is 1.6mm) on them when I changed them . And let me tell you, getting that sort of mileage in Irish roads is amazing!

Default 2023 IS 350 F Sport Fog Lights

This is what I came up with to mount fog lights on my 2023 IS 350 F Sport. I haven't wired in the factory push button switch yet but will do so.

Be curious to see the night photos with only the driving lights on.

I was not long ago wondering what it would look like to mount yellow baja designs pod lights behind the grill.

This was a cheap $20 pair I got on Amazon as a test. They are combination flood and fog and can be turned on separately but I wired them together so they can't be used with on coming traffic. I think they worked well so will purchase pair of quality dedicated fog lights.
1st pic is low beams, 2nd pic high beams. 3rd pic is flood/fog only.
