Very classy looking! Would you mind sharing where you sourced the door handle protectors and gloss door handle covers?Since getting it from the first of January, I've added...
PPF including DynoBLACK PPF to the roof and hood scoop
Titan T-S5 +45 18x9.5s in black
Kuda Phone Mount + magnets on the backside to keep a clean look
Custom floor mats -- I love these. Many aftermarket suppliers sell these as "premium mats" but you can find them on eBay for <$100. They're easy to maintain and cover the entire floor.
Cupeez door handle protectors - these are smaller than the mugen ones, but appear more balanced to me
Gloss black door handle covers
VTEC TURBO sticker of course
Eventuri Intake (not pictured
Switchback LED Sidemarkers (not pictured)
20% tint
And just yesterday at 3k miles, I changed out to Amsoil Signature 0w20 and Amsoil Synchromesh in the transmission.

that's so shitty man, I hate incompetent shops.Got the call my repair was finished and I could pick the car up (I got backed into while parked). I got there and saw they painted over the scratches but didn't remove the dent.. The manager admitted they overlooked it and took it back. SMH
Got my raceseng slammer in. I’d seen people say it’s got some weight to it but holy crap it’s heavy. Feels like it would break something haha. But once it’s installed shifts are WAY smoother. It feels amazing and it’s perfect fit in my hand. Only thing is that I’m not sure I love the look of the dark grey translucent. I might snatch a gloss black one and sell this one.
I did about the same removal for the MIshi IC.I took apart a lot of things for two little shifter cable bushings. I was planning on swapping in the braided clutch line as well, but it turns out that someone had something to prove when they tightened both 10 and 12 mm fittings. Guess I'll be riding in to town for a pair of line wrenches tomorrow...
I think you misunderstood me or I did not write it out clearly. I don't mean tow...as in pull down the road. I just mean that the wrecker can use the tow hook to pull my car up onto the flatbed. Much more convenient than having to go under the body and risk messing up the lip/bumper.I could be wrong, but I believe most companies will never tow your vehicle using those hooks. On many vehicles they are just for looks and they can't handle much force at all (aluminium tow hooks are a particularly bad idea).
While the Cusco hook you linked does seem like it could actually do the job, I get the feeling companies might not even bother risking it. No one wants to damage a customer's vehicle, or even take a chance, when more reliable (actual tow areas) options exist.
At the track near my city, the people working at the track won't even consider towing a car by these aftermarket hooks. YMMV.
man, these are clean.Swapped the depo smoked marker lights for the helix led smoked markers
Yeah, I'm digging them!man, these are clean.
