[QUOTE]Originally posted by 50 Deep: [QB] Been tinkering away at the R and getting parts installed. Lately it seems like I don't have time to put together a full write up. I will keep things brief, and if anyone is interested in a full installation write up let me know and I will work on getting it together [b]R Springs vs FP Springs[/b] Met up with my buddy Rick at the local cars and coffee. He has a GT350 on the Apex wheels, Carbon2Carbon R aero, and running the same Michelin SC2 tire. His car has the FP lowering springs and MM plates. Measurements show about a 20mm difference up front, and a little less out back. You can visibly see it is lower <img src="https://image.ibb.co/nfhPHF/R_Changes_6_of_4.jpg" style="max-width: 640px" alt=" - " /> [b]OPT7 Sequential LED Turn Signals[/b] These were a total pain in the butt to install. It took myself and [MENTION=22191]straightliner1[/MENTION] about 2.5 hours to get this task done. The end result is damn impressive, but the worst part is you never really get to see the lights in action as you drive. You know its there, but this mod is really for others to see. If I had to do it again I would, but it did take much longer than expected. No need to pull the front bumper. Go in through the fender liner, unbolt the cooler, remove a bunch of screws that holds the light, and pull it out from the front. It sounds easy, but my hands are still all beat up. <img src="https://image.ibb.co/fnWvPv/R_Changes_7_of_4.jpg" style="max-width: 640px" alt=" - " /> [b]ZL1 Addons Titanium Tow Hook[/b] This one was pretty simple since I knew what to expect from the last car. I love the look and the functionality. Pray to god I never need it. Went with titanium becauseracecar. <img src="https://image.ibb.co/jzkTcF/R_Changes_9_of_4.jpg" style="max-width: 640px" alt=" - " /> [b]iJDM Toy LED 4th Brake Light[/b] I was super sketch about buying this at first, but I want all my lighting converted to LED. It was also a pain to install and consumed 4 hours of my life. The area to work in behind the bumper is impossibly tight, the diff cooler had to be unbolted and moved, and running the wires took a little time. The kit does not come with any of the wiring connecters, grounds, or splicers you need so be sure to have them handy. I went with the smoked lens and well..... I love it. That LED surround is sexy at night. Definitely would bang again. Biggest complaint is I cant see it while driving. <img src="https://image.ibb.co/ju8gxF/R_Changes_8_of_4.jpg" style="max-width: 640px" alt=" - " /> Overall still in love with this car. My night photography sucks. Hope I helped you spend some money. Mod on :thumbsup: [/QB][/QUOTE]
