put my carbon rear bumper extensions on today.

 

Is that color hard to match, I'd guess? I see you have a black fuel door. I had a friend, back in '03 who was trying to color match body parts and I kinda remember him having trouble.

 

Hmm doesn't look a good fit coz the bend doesn't match the bumper shape. I think this should be for the JDM bumper. I have those installed to on my 9 and that fits perfectly.

 

Seems they would be a lot shorter if for JDM.

 

The shape of the bent seems to match the JDM 9 bumper coz mine looks very similar to that.

 

Kaj i was just trying to break up some of the yellow on the side of the car and don't mind the look right now but easy enough to take off when I get bored of it.

 

6ue5t i ordered usdm so unless they screwed up thats what they are.

 

Skimmed my wrapped rotors 🤣🤣🤣 No more vibrations💪🏼

 

Swapped out the dying HID's for LED low beams from Diode Dynamics 9006 bulb type. I have a GSR 05 so no factory HID's. The only issue I had was the LED side male connector did not click into the factory low beam female connector. I had to sand down the male connector on the LED in order for it to click it. Only took a min or two of sanding.

Overall I'm really happy with the SL1 LED's from Diode Dynamics. They are definitely brighter than my previous HID's and come in 6000k color temp.

I also had a shop replace all fluids, new timing belt water pump etc, new one step colder plugs and brand new front and rear rotors/pads. Car is running really smooth right now.



Found the reason why the passenger bulb was flickering. Water got into the HID side connection.



Much cleaner of an install vs HID's which required on my car power directly off the battery and obviously ballasts. Fun to remove all that stuff. What you see below from the brown plug and down is the complete LED assembly for the passenger side. I also need to replace the rusted out bolt hole on the side of the headlight. Not sure where I can purchase that from.



72 inch race ramps were not low enough unfortunately for me to drive straight onto them. Had to use a small piece of wood and then it cleared fine.

 

Soso, Dara and I went for a nice little cruise over the weekend. Went from my house, up through Arrowhead, over to Big Bear and back down. Was a fun little drive but there were a lot of people out.

 

Super fun drive Sean

I installed some JDM goodies v7 tails, amber side markers, and black leather w/ red stitching armrest cover then gave the car a bath. I also built a 4G63 motor from Legos, I got it off a site called replicamotorsport.com there are a lot of other cool engine kits on there too.

 

Just got my calipers redid, they needed some attention after 14years of ownership and countless of breaking threshold LOL. Super stoked how they came out couldnt be happier and i also got my rears redid with just BREMBO font stenci onlyl instead felt it was a lot cleaner instead of the smaller font and the famous Brembo LOGO. They will be put on ASAP

 

That's one of the things I want to do next. How much did it run you if you don't mind me asking?

 

prices could be different depending where your from, but the person I went through with 5 star review charged me $125 a caliper.

 

It's not. I have the usdm one and the JDM ones. Overall the JDM ones are shorter. If they were the JDM ones then they wouldn't even line up with edge of the bumper by the tire.
