Does anyone know if there is a front grill that has the same honey comb but no 'l", just the honey comb. Ive seen a chrome one but i think its too much chrome. If anything i might buy it, remove the chrome and repaint it polish black.

But if there is one thats already black, that would be neat.

Also, has anyone here added an oil cooler to their ISF? pros? cons?

Go back to the "Help!" thread you started where you asked the same question. I left a link over there.

People who are running the Joe Z exhaust, are you using the dual exhaust behind the original bumper tips, or did you go with the quad and ditch the bumper tips?

Default Added a diffuser, FINALLY

After searching for one for a few weeks, was lucky enough to buy this Novel diffuser off of another member. Fitment is pretty good and the quality is really nice. Heres a few photos from this morning (i need wheels i know lol)

Just put the Blizzaks on the F, I think the wheels look pretty nice for dedicated winters. Need to get new summers when spring rolls around and plan to go wider than stock. In a perfect world I would get 10" wide wheels too but that's just more money and then I would have a set of stock wheels I wouldn't know what to do with. Would love to know the widest tires I can fit on completely stock suspension and stock fenders on a 2008. I really don't want to roll fenders and would rather not lower the car from stock right now as well. I'm sure the front suspension would be high enough stock but the rear would probably rub I would imagine if I went wider.

From what I've heard though, you can fit 245/275 on the stock wheels no problem though

hey i have RCF wheel on and with KW v3 coilovers but stock ride height. rears are at 275/30 and fronts at 255/35 with no rubbing at all. i wanted the same as you with no rolling fenders nonsense. i keep forgetting the width of my wheels but i think its 9 up front and 10 in the rear. hope that helps. you could put 285s in the back but on potholes or if you have people in the back it will rub. didnt want to do that. my car is a daily in the midwest.

Hey Jwconeil, sorry for such a late response dont know if you still own a F, i just havent been here in such a long time since i now own a TypeR and sold my F a while back. But the HKS coilovers are made and designed by HKS if thats what you’re asking no one makes it for them. Price wise you’re looking at 1900-2400 depending where you get it from. Ride quality is superb, if i had to compare them i would say they are in line with Fortune Auto, BC RS, Toms, Greddy, just to name a few. You can also have the sprint rage changed at time or your order, or swap for Swift spring for robust ride handle.
