  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I installed my rims and body kit this weekend. Just waiting on the front lip when it comes in stock.

VERTINI RSF 1.2 with Nitto 555 G2 Tires

FRONT 20x9 TIRES 255/35/20
REAR 20x10.5 TIRES 285/30/20

ADRO V3

Carbon Fiber Side Skirts
Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser

I ordered the Charcoal Rear light tint and smoke in front. Not sure if I will like the dimming of the front lights so I picked the lightest color.

So the car goes for an alignment the 15th so I did drive it about 30 miles to show my brother and they told me it is ok to drive a little but I have to go to the store later.

For all the things I read about 20s, for me with these tires this car rides like a dream.

Now I am going to say that this car drives far better and far smoother than it has ever driven even from day 1. It is stable on the road, turns like a dream, bumps are nothing, it has a sport/luxury feel.

Over the train tracks pfft far smoother than the stock setup, road noise I hear nothing much. The wheels are fat and look badazz going slow.

I do not know how else to explain my experience except it is amazing and worth it.

So in the near future I will being installing my Velossa LitKit and my LUXUS mats with the red stiching and my Charcoal Taillight and Smoked Headlight tint.

Cannot wait for my V3 lip too. Not sure I will do much else. Maybe one day get my trim in CF or black. I will see. I like that it is dark lol.

Just a few pix of the car with the lights tinted.

The Lamin-X looks good but the pieces are just too small. They are cut to fit the shape but they are still not right.

Just not enough to cover fully. I had to heat them more than I expected to be able to stretch them as far as I could and that should not be the way it is.

Yes I can understand a little but sorry they need to add 1/2 inch to the outside, let us put it on easier and they simply trim it where it tucks into the light.

Not sure how I am expected to install these perfectly when they (in my opinion) are just not big enough.

It was close with lots of stretching so I just think why not make it too large instead of clearly too small.

If I had a full sheet with no experience I could have made these look 10% perfect. The tailights have major curves but without having to be concerned the whole time it is lining up at both ends you can easily start at the center (as you should and they say this) but not worry at all it is reaching.

Point is with a large square, start at the middle eliminating all chances for wrinkles and folding.

My final thought to anyone thinking of it.

Get the sheets, the precuts are too small.

I am sure there is a great installer laughing but they are too small even during test fitting.

I love the look though and the material is nice. From a few feet it looks amazing, up close ti does not meet the standards of the rest of the car.

That is Rear Charcoal and Front Smoke
