Those have to be the cleanest skirts I’ve seen yet. Love the simplicity of them. Favorite taillights for an ISF as well.

It's been a while since I've updated the thread but I recently got these USRS LCA RR-Racing Bushings installed. A buddy of mine helped me with the install took about 30 mins, pretty easy with the right tools.

Such an awesome build. Notice a bid difference with the headers?

Butt dyno? Yes, sound? Yes. But it makes sense as it's one of the most HP gained bolt on. I mainly enjoy the sound more than anything haha.

Picked up my dream wheels.

TE37 Ultras in Bronze.

Front: 19x9.5 + 35
Rear: 19x10.5 +32

Can't wait to get them mounted but due to how wide it is I need to get my rear fenders shaved so I have to make a trip out to CA since I don't trust any shops in AZ nor do I think any offer this service.

In love with these wheels please keep us updated once you've shaved the fenders on tires specs and any rubbing issues you face

Hey John

I believe you know that my rear fenders are rolled flat. My shop of choice did a wonderful job. I'm running modified RCF wheels (19X10 +46) with 295/30/19 S-04s.

Did a brake and rotors changed. My car had 62k miles at the time of the brake job and my front rotors were reading 28.35mm so still a bit of life left but I ended up switching them out for another set of OEM. No more squeals with Project Mu, coming from StopTech although it could have been lack of brake pad grease between the shims and the pad themselves that caused my StopTechs to squeal like a freight train. I love these new pads, no squeals and very little dusting so far.

Well here they are, finally on my car. I am not too happy with the way it sits at the moment, but SPC Camber Arms are on their way this week that will hopefully make my rears flushed.

Here are the specifications below:
Front: 19x9.5 +35 (Flush) + 245/35/19 (Slight Stretch, will be upgrading to 255 after)
Rear: 19x10.5 +32 (1/2 inch Poke) + 275/30/19 (Slight Stretch, will be upgrading to 285 after)
Rear Fenders: Shaved
Suspension: Swift Lowering Springs in the Front & OEM 2012 Springs in the Rear
