Default ToeKnee's Nebula 3IS non-fsport Build Diary

Hello Everyone.
I purchased the car back in July of 2014 and havent done much to it until recently. I wanted to keep a log of all the changes I have done and add on to it as I go.


The first picture I took of the car.

Next I got the front bumper clear bra and windows tinted. Also I changed all the Interior lights and pudding lights to LEDS and wrapped my grille black



I got some window visors



Superdowns!



Lowered with 20mm spacers all around!
It took me roughly 2.5 hours to installed them. Swapping the springs over was a PIA.



Aeroflow Dynamics Splitter

Aeroflow Side Skirts

Nice build! Where did you get your clear bra installed at? I'm located in Socal about 40 mins from the Longo dealership. Thanks!

I got my clear bra done at Advance Auto Engineering. They are located in Cerritos. Super chill guy.
The clear bra I have is Xpel. Supposedly its one of the best one on the market and it doesnt fade yellow or so I was told. This clear bra actually saved my bumper once already. I was driving on the freeway at night and ran over a broke bumper on the freeway. When I pulled over to look at the damages, all I saw was scuff marks that I easily rubbed away. Lol

The superdowns give the car an awesome drop. The ride comfort went down a bit, making the car slightly more bumpy than stock. Other than that, the car feels much better around corners.
