Keep up the good work and go with a SIR front lip and leave in black.

You should find some SIR corners too!

He also got me these babies

Hopefully I can install them tomorrow, and I'll try to get pics of the new corners ASAP!

Only problem I have with them is that one of the 2 screws for the covers can't reach the plastic thing that it needs to screw into, and I think the lights don't have enough clearance behind the bumper, so I had to muscle it back on, leaving an odd gap between the bumper and fender that I can stick my thumb between. But I guess that's what comes from OEM styled aftermarket parts :lol: .

Good thing I was able to catch it or I wouldn't be posting on this forum anymore, be it the death of me or my car haha. But does anyone know what kind of suspension upgrades would reduce the amount of understeer on the car?

- Lowered on function and form type 1
- 15x7 Advan Racing wheel

I installed the front suspension myself, but when it came to the rear, I had my dad take it to his mechanic because the lca bolts were seized. The wheels were actually bought when my car was at the shop. One of the mechanics was selling them. According to dad, they were $400 for the set of wheels and fresh rubber on them. Supposedly they haven't been driven more than 3500km.

The build has kinda deviated from the initial plans I set out from a few months ago :lol: But I'm loving my EG8 more and more now. Here's my flickr photostream if you guys want to see all of the pictures I've ever taken, and in their original sizes.
