Long story short, got the employee discount because i just bought the car then had a Costco $50 rebate buying from one of there associated dealers
How did you get the $50 Costco rebate? I signed up for the Costco Auto Program too but no one mentioned any rebate.

Car looks great btw!

Thank you! You have to make sure you buy from a Costco related dealer, buy it from the guy they name and e-mail costco proof of purchase and they'll send you a $50 you can use for whatever.

Hope I'm safe to say you're the first I've seen running a 3IS AFD front splitter and side skirt extension, which wins my vote. This sets your car apart and gives an option to other owners assuming AFD will stock the 3IS designs on their website. Keep up the work bro

Thanks i really appreciate the kind words. I was told by my uncle who is a big car head to always set your own trend and do things that others haven't. I got the idea from RVCAis250, but wanted to make the splitter form to the the bumper(i'll have more pics with the write up soon)I wasn't too excited on any of the lips that's been made and the price point for those are ridiculous lol

Not sure if they've posted it on their website yet, but i do know that they are taking orders. I'll be doing a group buy if there is enough people interested when i do my write up.

Thanks to @Mushi31 for the trade! Traded my Fsport Axel back + cash for his Ark Grip Catback. Got our exhaust switched out at Music Box in El Monte by Tommy.

It was a long journey but had to end due to the Family complaining about the sound (I freaken love it btw). Nice meeting JAYDEMM and his aggressive ride. The ARK Catback is louder with a nice aggressive tone and the looks on the ARK exhaust from the rear is a nice sight. The FSport is pretty low with soft growl that you can slightly hear it. I have the Takeda Intake and at the lower revs you'll hear the Fsport exhaust but once you get to the higher revs the intake is screaming.

Exactly how Steve said it. Thanks for that!
