Mounted my phone today. Very pleased with this ProClip.com mount.





its molded and fits in perfectly between the molding below and above the vent housing. Allows the vent to still be operated fully behind it because it doesnt attach TO the vent verts but above and below them
proclip allows you to pick your car and get a custom mount just for it and then pick you phine and get the right size carrier for it and mash them together. Some assembly required

did you buy the kit or have him lay from a roll freestyle?
I am a Finance Manager at a Toyota dealership and the guy that did this work is our pin stripe/vinyl guy. It was pretty cool watching him do this work. No emblems nor shark antenna removed to lay this.....

the side panels come with the emblem hole precut . But as a former vinyl installer myself I appreciate a smooth install as well.

The brake decals are actually a reflective sticker which kind of glow with any light on them.


Window trim and roof.
looks so great, can you post a full side profile shot, you are the first person i've seen that has wisely blacked out the window trim, which i think is a must do on the rc-f. that chrome trim is dastardly, this makes it look so much more upscale and sporty.

Yeah, the side chrome really stands out, not in a good way, depending on your other colors.
Plenty of others have done this already.
I've only had my car a few months and all cosmetic mods have come from ideas from this forum.

Ignore the front wheel, had a flat the other day and put this one on to get the other tire repaired.

The Michelin Pilot Sport 4S are great tires and they grip really well. Went with 275/30/19 up front and 295/30/19 in rears on stock wheels and stock height.

Gratz! I hope that you didn't have to wait as long as I did. That wait was killing me. There's nothing like shelling out a few grand for something and then not getting to enjoy it for 5 months...

Actually, Just my opinion of course, but I like the front wheel better than your rear one. So much so, that I have a set on my ISF.
