3M double sided tape, the one that can hold 5lbs with some self drilling screws just to make sure that it stays there if the tape fails....

but that thing is super strong if you clean the surfaces with alchool or something like that, i i don't it's going to fly away anytime soon, and if it does... its was like $15 for 20feets and i still have 11 left... :P

Ah, I see. Yeah, I did my own home depot lip on my Kouki. I dunno if it looks as good as yours, but it's okay.

i never got it realigned after the new wheels/coils...

but on my old setup...megan streets+hotwheels (17x9 +0) all around..
my alignment specs were:
Front:
camber: -2.5
toe: +0
caster: +7 or 8ish(forgot)

Rear:
Camber: -1.8
toe: +0
caster: stock arms? 0? (not sure)


only thing i changed was i pushed in the camber plates a lil to clear the fenders...but it looks like i can pull it out a bit because it's the positve caster that's causing rubbing, not camber...

Thats not bad for the size wheels you have..

Is your rear fender pulled any, from the pics it looks like they were pulled a little... And what size tires are you running in the back and in the front?

It's the layover vinyl, pretty ease to use and looks bad as hell. Something different.

Daniel, you can use yellow fog light capsules (from lexus or acura) in the high beam reflector, the lense is still clear but it lights up nice and yellow. while you're in there retrofit the lamps with hid projectors :wink:

Damn Spencer! like I was telling you before...I like the bulbs you got in your headlights. It's just that OEM lip that sets it all off though ahahha. I'm probably going to try my tail lights out sometime soon though. I'll let you know how it goes. Lol.

Nice looking car, if that intake is too tall you could weld on a hood bump from a trubo dodge or DSM. Any good body man could make it look mint.

A guy I know has done it before but not to a SX

good idea. my turbo sits about an inch higher that efeezis', i had to cut the skeleton on the hood for it to even close, and the hood still rests on top of the turbo.
