My Unity sidemarkers came in from @CanadiaegeanBlue yesterday. They look amazing! Now I just gotta find time to install them.

Hope the ear-to-ear grin never goes away seeing them on your car :D

I ask people to take before and after pictures so they can remember how ugly the stock ones are, and what a change these are when OFF or ON!

Is any of this premade, or are you doing all of this yourself with xacto knives or something?
Xacto knife and lots of patience. Some vinyl wrap tools also help

I forgot to snap a before pic, but I did just get them installed. Did the plumber's tape as recommended by you in another post, as a preventative measure. Also had to do the tab-pull method on both sides. But everything's rock solid now and they look great! I can't wait to see them when it gets dark. :D

Too bad I wasn't able to install them yesterday in the rare 65* sunny weather we had, and get a better pic. Today is rainy and my car is dirty, but at least I have a carport that I was able to be under for the install.

Did the DNA Motoring tail lights, integrated LEDs. Replaced my cheap smoked side markers with the Helix ones. Car looks much better now.

Also swapped my winter tires off and put my all seasons back on. Finally, snow has left us here.

Went from 87 to 91 octane to see if that would change my Knock Control number and it went from .8's/high .7's to .5/high .4s.

Swapped out my OEM air filter with a K&N. It was time for a replacement filter, I like that you can wash and reuse the K&N. No notable difference which is fine with me.

Got my new wheels mounted and installed over the weekend! :)

They are 18x9.5 + 35 wrapped in a 245/40. Car is also dropped on sportlines. Was rubbing pretty bad prior to doing the fender tab mod, which got rid of the issue for sure. I’m still having minor rubbing issues on dips (with three people) but it’s not too bad compared to before. Might end up getting some camber in front eventually..

Why not consider 235/40? This will lower the tyre sidewall by 5.1%(0.2”) away from the tab and may not require camber.

That's what I was thinking actually. It was either changing up the tires or doing a camber in front (which I think is the last thing I would do now). Thank you for the input, I definitely consider it. :thumbsup:
