Default Few pics of my 2015 CT200h F-Sport

Bought the car on 12/30/2014 to take advantage of the 0.9% APR and just did a few mods to it.

I got them wrapped at Aerowerkz Motorsport. I tried to get Don Nguyen but he doesn't wrap on weekends. Also just got Morimoto HID's for both lowbeams and fogs. I'll probably install them end of this coming week.

Just got my lifetime alignment done over at Firestone on Bristol and got my camber bolts installed there. Took them a little over 2 hours. They drove my car around and adjusted the cambers accordingly 4x to get it perfect, or close to it. Told me to come back in 3-4 weeks to get it done again if I wanted. Nice guys over there.

Thanks! I still have my 5 series which I'll probably be trading in for a RX. Waiting for the 2016 to roll out.

- Tanabe Sustec Coilovers
- 19x8.5 +45 AG M510 Matte black
- 235/35 Nitto Invos

I don't even rub going up driveways slowly, I just fear of scraping the front bumper for the car being so low. I only hear the front tires 'slightly' rub when I hit quick 'mini dips' on the freeway or maybe some residential areas going at a fast speed.

Window trim with window visor trim cost me $250 with the front chrome garnish with 1 year warranty on the work. 10 years on the vinyl.

Looks good. Makes me want to put 19's on mine. Rear spacers would help make the rear rims look flush like the fronts.

Wow, $250 for that vinyl job. They didn't even do the lower grille surround...

Right on, it looks great. Im on the F-Sport blue springs and 18x9.5 +40, 245/45, hardly rub as well. My car is more of a meaty flush then stance. Dang I really want my window trim wrapped now it looks killer.

Did you ever get the HID's installed? What specific Morimoto setup did you choose?

I was thinking:

XB35 (35W)
H11B XB 4500k
Morimoto XB Igniter (AMP)
HD Relay or Canbus (Can't decide)

Yes. I went with:

XB35 (35W)
H11B XB 5500k
Morimoto XB Igniter (AMP)
HD Relay for the fogs
Canbus for low beams

You have to go with relays for the fogs and canbus for the low beams. I went canbus for both; fogs were flickering. Swapped them out for relays and no problems since. It's best to remove the front bumper when you do the fogs.

Awesome pics! Thanks for the tip as well. Is there any reason you choose 5500k over 4500k for low beams?

Are the fog lights really H11 as well? I'm thinking about going with these.
