Yup, sorry...the "joys" of living in a Northeastern state that requires front license plates.

I've got the Infared convertible and yeah it gets more attention than I'm accustomed to. Slightly annoying! 😂

How are you liking those Tein Springs? Have you noticed a change in the ride quality? I want to possibly lower mine, but I'm concerned about scraping on speed bumps or inclined/declined entrances.

No issues around me! I have heard the bumper touch a handful of times but generally only when I've been careless or trying to pull out of a shopping center or something in a hurry. I'm a little nervous with the lip, but had no problem at all with the stock bumper on the springs.

I would definitely advise scrape armor or sliplo though just to CYA. I had sliplo on before the kit and will be reapplying it to the lip as well.

Ride quality is very similar to OEM, not a perceptible change to me.

Ahh, spring...The season of love, allergies, and high-octane indulgence for 471 wild ponies.

FYI: RS-R springs are good, too. I don't notice any difference in ride quality. Hugs corners WAY better, too. Haven't scrapped a single speed bump.

Yeah have heard good things on those too, I think the biggest difference is the amount of drop. TEIN will sit a lower in the front and RSR a little lower in the rear.
