Congrats! Lots of Pearl Whites so far haha. The white was my second choice but it's a really nice color though.

This, sadly, should be everyone thus far. The Regional service manager came out and told me and the sales manager i worked with it was a known issue. My dealership re-ordered the aero kit painted properly in Diamond White for me.



Anyways ...

and VOLK ZE40 waiting for no salt weather.

I recently traded up to a OB FE from a 2011 TB RA. As much as I loved my RA, the evo really is a huge step up performance wise. It's so much more stable and capable than the RA. With the Bilsteins, it's more comfortable too!

So far it's stock with a Greddy front lip and Blizzak WS80 winter tires but I do already have wheels and coilovers ready to install in the spring.





My old RA





New 2015 FE
that lip looks good, did it come painted already?
