This makes me really wish i had gotten the matte. Love the blue calipers! And I love the look of the mud flaps and have for a long time. I let Syroyizhka drive my car today and I noticed that the mud flaps "flap" around quite a bit, and are really reflective. I'm gonna try to connect some thin metal plates to them so they stay in place. Its always good to let somebody else drive your car every so often so you can see what you look like. I had no idea the flaps were so reflective and blew around so much. They're still way better than the ugly mud guards that hyundai makes I'd never let those touch my car.

I really REALLY like these mud flaps! Looks like a rally mudflap or something like that,

Question, Do these scrape in certain situations? just wondering because they look low. I like that though.

ROCK your lift kit brotha :D

Yeah the mud flaps definitely make the car more badass lol

Hyperion- you should trade yours in for matte grey haha jk our car looks badass no matter what color....but the matte grey does get alot of attention and I have yet to see another here in SoCal.

Cinder block- better get some flaps this weekend! And post pics....cars gunna look way sicker

Dennis- is that solo catback exhaust pretty loud? Haven't picked up an exhaust system yet, I want a loud one!

I would 100% recommend that you get the Solo Performance exhaust system ! It comes with a resonator and a straight pipe which allows you to decide on how loud you'd like the car to sound. With the resonator attached it will be less loud, which is how mine is currently setup, but to me its exactly how I'd want the car to sound. It's not so loud where people would think its tacky or unnecessary, its just perfect haha

The solo exhaust is the biggest diameter which is why he is suggesting it. However, it has the harshest bends. The bends are done for sound and I believe the 3" compensates for the bends.

Without a flow test between the 2.5" free flowing and the 3" loopy bends, there will be no telling which would be better with any mods.

Any exhaust will work great for a significant amount of modifications.

By serious, I am thinking turbo upgrade, which probably will be quite some time before one comes out and quite expensive for most peoples blood!

Boostin'- what do you consider "serious engine mods"? And why do you suggest the solo only for that reason? And the other exhaust if I'm
Not doing serious mods?
I'm not even going to even discuss this anymore, but what I said earlier. All this is going to do is cause a chaos again with supporters that own Solo exhaust and others that know what the hell they are talking about on exhaust. Your best is to do a search on Solo Exhaust you will see a locked tread. That's where the mess began.

Yo turbosocks.....got anymore of those FMICs laying around? Trying to get one lol seriously though

As for the exhaust.....solo is the loudest eh? I like loudest....but I obviously want as much hp gain as possible too....ill do some digging and figure it out.

The pierce downpipe is also a key buy right? Is it compatible with all exhaust systems?

Today I went to home depot and purchased a 12" x 12" piece of sheet metal. They had two different options of thickness and I chose the thicker one. I will have to take pics tomorrow. I basically cut out two long rectangles to create an upside down V from the center nut. I used outdoor mounting tape to keep it attached, along with cutting a slit in the metal to fit under the screw. Sorry, without pics this is probably all jiberish.
