    Installed the caps for the door hinge. Looks pretty nice!

    I've also took the front passenger side door panel off to investigate a rattle corresponding to bass. Looks like it's the factory plastic liner that caused the rattle. Added a few foam pads around the critical points and no more rattles now. I'm thinking about getting some sound deadener soon but that's gonna be this summer.

    Hi VicD. When the ICE starts especially on a cold day it now sounds more "bassy" and suppressed unlike before where I can "feel" the "tinnyness" of the Aluminum hood. Aside from noise one of my concerns here too was I will be wrapping the hood in CF so if there was any heat coming through the hood liner to the metal it won't affect the vinyl. I have a friend's civic whom I wrapped the hood as well after a year it's started to develop some stretch lines so IMHO if I can somewhat control the heat I can minimize that CF issue in the future. We'll see how this goes...;)

    P.S. Did I answer your question?(n)

    Just decided to pay a couple dollars more for ebay seller rating and product description. they are still available at $4 But did not want to risk getting the wrong item when it's coming all the way from China.

    Took me 36 minutes including double and triple checking everything. Not bad at all.

    Hi. Few things... Does that come with instructions? Will it void warranty? And, from a "priority" standpoint, which do you think should one brace first, the front or this? Thanks in advanced:)

    Hi. Does the grille cover clip on or a replacement? Was thinking of this too

    It comes with instructions. It will not void warranty because it's a TRD (performance arm for Toyota) part. I would add the sway bar first and go from there.
