Finally got the resonators put on. Apparently they break in. Did notice a small decrease in sound when its at its loudest and it gave it more burbles without changing the tone. Also had them tuck the tips back a bit more, looks better from the side and top. Not sure I had pics of it before sticking out. I'll look into it.

The tips will be put on and the small reso's in the rear. Should make it damn near perfect.

Happy for you man. It's a good feeling when stuff gets done.

Tapa sucks. Doesn't have them, and I can't remember them all. Get over it.

Tapa does suck. Why don't you use the mobile version of the site? It's :notbad: and has all the DFDmojis.

Also, reported for not using :dealwithit: above.

Same. Mobile site loads plenty fast enough. Plus, Tapa often takes forever to spool up for me.

Looks good. How's the visibility out of the back with 5? I had that on a few cars and find night visibility backing up to be a challenge.

No problems whatsoever. The reverse LEDs are super bright, so that may help doe.

Was going to pull off the rear diffuser and paint it gloss black.... NOPE.

Simple trim clips on the bottom, and then a rivet on the edges. Easy right? NOPE. There is a star screw on the back side way up about the level of the reflector that I have no way of getting to. I have maybe 1 inch of room to get a bit into the screw. The bit itself is longer than that. So unless I have missed something, which is always possible, to get the diffuser off means removing the entire bumper.

:wtf: :rage:

Bumpers aren't that hard to remove, really.

Only in the winter when clips break.
Winter doesn't exist in CA.

It does where I live.

Northern California and Southern California are two different animals. I get the hate for SoCal. Besides weather, it is pretty terrible. But NorCal is pretty fucking awesome.

I think so-cal is just fine. San Diego is a great place. Santa barbara is amazing as well, as well as SLO etc. There are pockets of shit all over the state, but that goes with every place.

California is a great state anywhere near the coast. Dat inland empire doe :disgust:
