Hey sorry for the late response, just now saw your message... & to answer your question it's like nite & day... the GSF is just a beast compared to my F-Sport, but don't get me wrong I still enjoy driving my F-Sport stock day to day especially when the weathers ****y out... if I had a AWD model I'd keep it through the winter...

Spent hours cleaning up stone chips on the front end the original owner left me. Must have been a couple of hundred! Never used the product before, but Dr Color Chip works great. No, I'm not a salesman for them. I'll try to post pics soon.

I've used it before and it works pretty good. On my car it looks like it originally had the protective bra on the hood and sides. When I got the car the vinyl has quite a few scratches on it and doesn't look good compared to the paint but it seems to have prevented any rock chips on the car. I want to remove it because of the scratches but it seems to still protect well so I leave it. Not sure how hard it would be to reapply a new one.

Installed a tanabe front strut brace today. Didn't know what to expect, on stock awd there is some body roll. After testing it out, it honestly feels way better, took it around some curvery roads and the steering responds much better and it stays flatter to the road. Maybes its just a placebo effect idk.
on eBay bro! 125.99 plus a 51 to ship!

I have some knifeless tape on the way I'm gonna try out for the first time. Going to try to wrap some of my interior trim with a big roll of carbon fiber 5d wrap. Its been a pain to work with on almost anything else. The trim in the car is pretty flat so I might be able to have it look decent without removing the trim and using the knifeless tape.

Blacked out my i-Pass so it matches the dark interior.
