I've been getting mixed reviews about the tail lights, which is fine by me. I got them for my own joy not others. If people like them, great, if not, no worries.

I for one don't like em but i hear about doin for yourself and not others. I have the same attitude. The coilovers gave a sick drop, how do they ride and how much were they?

Sux about the accident man. Went through all the pages didn't read the text though. Seems a bit overkill on the sound deadener....but props to you puttin in all that work. Hope the car either gets fixed or replaced and you continue so you can see the finished product of your hard work.

I loved the coil over dampers...you could adjust it to 32 positions on each side front and back, though I only did the front. on the stiffest ride you could feel pretty much all the bumps but I sorta liked the feeling, wasnt real jumpy. on the softest setting it was a smooth ride, unless you get on a horrible highway or street. It cost me roughly 1100 installed.

As for the deadening, there is never too much in my opinion, in fact, I needed more. It was raining yesterday and I really heard it on the roof, so I would have done that, but I heard nothing on the hood. Doing the wheel wells really reduced road noise. Think of driving your 6th gen and then hopping into a BMW, thats how noticeable the difference was. Plus with 4,000 underrated watts and a lil over 250 sq. ft. of cone area it flexes some major panels. I would love to have done more deadening but I didnt want to put the money into it.

Sorry to hear about the accident bro. But you put a lot of attention into details which was bad ***. I actually gave up on reading it after 2 pages.The pictures just took to much time to load.
