How did the rear end feel in the corners? Horse on coblestones? j/k.

Nah, I really am curious.

Maybe a noob question, but why do you have to tape up all the lights in the front?

kinda wish the rsb was adjustable, otherwise the car handled great. the biggest shock to me were the 6th gen brakes and hps pads. the brakes after repeatable 120 to 60 slow downs were incredible. i was going to upgrade to wilwoods, but imo its not necessary

to help prevent the headlights from cracking from rocks that might get kicked up by someone in front of you. cheap insurance, better than nothing..plus it looks bad a$$..lol
