'19 SGP FK7

[leastfavourite]

Looks good. Seems like you could go meatier on the tire and still be clear on fenders. That's quite the stretch. Not hating, just an observation that could improve function and still look sick.

I'm definitely considering it, even with the extra camber I could use it.



for an update
I spent the last 5 days in Tennessee for Slammedenuff Gatlinburg
The trip was great and I got a bunch of pictures

No updates in a while, been pretty busy since the trip and holiday season.

Had a few small things put in since then

Caruse Design Aero Flap for the wing

Tuxmat Floor Mats

Engine Bay Side Panels

and some Spoon convex mirrors (drivers side cracked.. Have to order a new set)

I also have some Whiteline front joints waiting to be installed, a rear wiper delete on the way and since I literally cannot find anyone in South FL to roll my rears I have an eastwood roller on the way.

I was curious where you found a rear wiper delete for the fk7? I’ve been looking for one for some time now before my custom louver comes

Your wheels are sick. I been looking for white rims for my red fk8. Might have to cop these. What is the fitment? Do you plan on making them more flush? *watching this thread* ?

Thanks! White on red is a flawless combo, they're 18x10+20 and there's some poke without camber, but on an FK8 they should sit pretty flush from the wider fenders!

And only $300 a wheel. Sheesh. Definitely considering these. Thanks for the response!

How have your tail lights been holding up with the 3m Window Weld Seal?

How have your tail lights been holding up with the 3m Window Weld Seal?

Not the best at first, I sort of skimped on the amount I used to seal and the Florida heat got to it. There's a little bit of debris on the inside now. The issue is mostly on my left light (my first try) I had to take it off and add more windo-weld to keep any water from getting in but it still fogs up when washing.

I'm looking to reattempt a second set sometime soon and try other methods.

Took me long enough but I finally finished them, definitely a learning process.

Had to go through a bit of Instagram digging and actually other members here who had done it before to figure out how it go about it.

Purchased some OEM lenses locally

Used a heat gun, metal pry tool, dremel, and box cutter to pry the lenses off.
Slicing around the adhesive of the clear lens leaves cracking marks which are almost impossible to fix. I'm sure there's ways around it.

On my first go around for the left trunk light I ended up cracking the housing. The light up LED plastic 'bulb' doesn't hold without the red lens so I used gorilla glue to secure it. It ended up corroding the clear housing and turning yellow. Trying out a clear silicon to reseal ended poorly so this is going into the trash ?

I had seen using clear silicon to seal would be the best option but it turned out pretty bad and didn't feel reliable. A friend of mine told me about the 3M Windo-Weld he was using to seal his cars tail lights.

This stuff was perfect for the project. It's like playdough, stretch it around the edges of the housing and it holds instantly. No waiting hours to dry and feels reliable.

After test fitting the lens I realized I had to switch over to red LED brake's and and some yellow LED turn's to hide that orange bulb.

After the experience on the first light I just rushed through the second two and slapped them on. My hands are beat and I just cba trying again on another set so here they are ?

And honestly not too bad.

Where did you buy the oem lens from exactly, or what’d you search up to find them. If you don’t mind me asking
