Some pics of the PPF-ed front, Zunsport grilles, and tinted windows.

Did a day trip to Sonora Pass (just north of Yosemite) today. Got in a good 400 miles towards the break in service. The break in guidelines were definitely treated as more of a suggestion than a requirement on this trip...

Why do you continue to try to associate car parts with clothes.

Just got new shoes, new socks etc 😆

Southtown · 10-06-2024, 11:00 AM

All done

I love it - just the right amount of induction sound & it's very nicely made. You can get red filters, too. Very nice fitment and easy to install.

I couldn't tell you if I've noticed any change in the IATs as I didn't watch the IATs before the install. I also can't say I noticed any changes in performance or response. I can say the change in induction sound is real nice.

My grandparents used to have a cabin up in Arnold near Angel's Camp / Murphy's & we use to take this route all the time. Glad the run-in was treated fairly lightly.

You know you're gonna HAVE to post a video of the sound of your exhaust after install!!

Changed out the differential fluid.

Mileage: 3800

Reason: OCD

It was really dark. I’m wondering if the dealer changed it out at 1200 miles as they were supposed too.

Your service invoice should show fluids used.

Went with EMD Auto spacer set and springs. I had them installed at their shop in SoCal.

What sort of quotes for pricing should I expect for an install like this?

Could you take more pictures of the side profile? I’m on eibachs and have EMDs waiting for install. The eibach pros did not drop low enough for my liking. How’s the ride quality?

I believe the EMDs are slightly lower, also the front end is a bit lower which I prefer. The ride quality is fairly similar to stock but obviously a bit more gentle on driveways and humps. I’ll see if I can get a few photos later.

Here are some quick pics couldn’t get far enough due to parking.

No, do not use a stripe wheel on frozen paint!

I removed my lip spoiler chemically (goo gone spray and lots of towels) and very, very slowly.
