I don't like plastidip it doesn't give the gloss effect. The emblem is gloss black now

So my buddy found me some lowering springs and I was actually starting to lean towards not lowering my car period...but the springs were only $100 and were driven on with less than 2k miles so I decided to lower my car with RSR lowering springs! Here are some pics!

So I got to record a better sound clip but this video does my exhaust zero justice! I’m gonna try again in a regular lot that’s not underground next time. Hopefully I can capture a clip that will give my car some justice! This thing sounds menecing and ear piercing loud and high pitched, like an exotic but we’ll have to wait and see! Also, here are a few shots I took!

Got my car dynod on a dynojet today. I was able to get 4 pulls and was satisfied with the HP numbers but disappointed with the Torque numbers. I don't know if it had anything to do with my pre collision light coming on as well as my trac and check engine during the 3rd pull and all of the 4th. Anyway, i'm thinking about either giving it another shot on expert mode since I do have pre collision, or swap my password JDM intake for my stock box w/ drop in afe dry filter and see if there are any different numbers! Anyway here are the dyno videos and print out, enjoy!

Be careful with those RSR springs, I took a corner a little spirited and they bottomed out causing a wire harness being cut in half. 600$ Screw up. Ponied up for some Penske coils and never looked back. The spring rate on the RSR is low
