Default Added Some New Stuff For Winter

So picked up some items that I added to my car. The carbon fiber engine cover and some buddy club wheels which actually came out good. The last item they threw in I thought I could just put it in my garage.

Yeah if you do get it you will need to switch the grommets out.

Looks good. I just switched to my stock 18's for the winter, the car looks funny now. Are you going to lower it again?

Funny story, was gonna lower it a little more and then it snowed today and reminded me that I live in Boston. We get a couple of good days and we think we are in spring here in Boston, so changed my mind after the weather. I will try to take a better pic as it looks good not as bad as I thought but only with good lighting because of the dark wheels, will use my DSLR when the sun shines.

cool engine cover, but in my opinion the original F sport wheels look MUCH better, these wheels kind of downgrade the appearance of the vehicle.

Its just my opinion though, rock em if you like them my friend

Is there any horsepower gained or weight saved with the Carbon Fiber Engine Cover?
