Default KD's Xtra clean 2k EBP Si *56k warned

New work: shaved stock antena, MDX/Si center roof antena. Mugen type lip, repainted rear bumper. ATS DTM wheels with Kumho 711 rubber (better grip than Toyo fz4-s @ 1/2 the price). ATS supply Porsche w/ the 911 turbo's wheels, they supply Mercedes and Opel DTM teams with racing wheels and are the spec wheel on all European F3000 race cars with Kumho rubber. Made in Germany, not China

Thanks! I thought about that, but I really like it where it is, it kinda gives it an RC car, or Touring car look.

Tell the mohawk thing to the Honda (Civic hybrid), Ford, Infinity and Nissan designers. I just noticed that the Nissan Murano and Infinity FX have the same style antenna in the exact same place. It gets great reception too

Thanks alot. I absolutley love them and the pics don't do them any justice at all. The quality is exceptional (if Porsche trust them as an OE supplier...) and the finish is flawless.

I have H&R Sport's on there and the back is always a bit higher with H&R springs. I'm getting a rear lip which will help it look a bit more balanced in the back.

Get rid of that cheap *** sway bar, i had one on my car and I pulled the top bolt on the passenger side through my subframe. I used lock washers, a lock nut and loctite, because i had vibrated all of the bolts out before. I also cracked the black mounting plate in half. Learn from my mistake... I now have the comptech sway/tie bar combo. Just on the middle setting is a huge difference from the skunk bar. btw, nice clean car.

It's not a cheap *** bar, I've had it on there with the King reinforcement plates WELDED on for over 2 years. I change the Teflon tape every 6 months, did it last week actually, and the bolts, the plates, the sub-frame is fine. By the time you add the Skunk2 bar, the King plates, the frame shop that welded them on and the Neuspeed lower bar, I could've gotten the Comptech bar. Thanks for the concern though

I LOVE THE RIMS, so they aren't going anywhere.

Thanks people.

One thing seems certain: people either like it, or they don't. No mixed feelings about it. Either way, there's a hole in the roof, so it stays wher it is for now! lol!!
