LOL. Yea the Chef. He doesnt even wanna ride with me anymore cuz he knows Im gunna call him a fatass. LOL I feel you on the hassle tho. But to me, the ends justify the means. The .5 inch drop from sport suspension to H&R sport springs was extremely noticeable in my eyes and I love it more and more as I look at how it sits

I'm curious if this guy is just a hater or he really cares. I could understand if the bump and the side grills weren't noticeable or if you had just purchased a plain CF hood, but they clearly are. Whatever tho.... no need to go further. It just bothers me when folks ask questions they are almost certain they know the answers to.

Haha, nah, I think he is just curious. Noticed he made a thread about it as well earlier. English is probably not his first language, so his wording might be misinterpreted

In any case, I thought I would disclose this. I *might* still do the splitter. They're not much, so even if it gets raped, it won't hurt much, lol. We'll see. Probably something I'll do when I am bored again.

Saw his post
Thats primarily why I was thinking it was more of a condescending question. Most folks know that you offer several mods that improve cosmetic features of the car. Plus his post sounded pretty articulate so I'm not giving him that pass. Whatever. Sorry to drift off topic. My bad.

Still tho. Your sh*t would look siiiick if it was dropped ... even a tiny bit.

Nope, I paid a guy to do them. The guy took an air saw to it, and it turned out great!

Bought the setup from Mentholguy (modmynav) on the board.
