AEM Cold air intake
JB SSP, did you add the bushings
Corksport Motor Mount - I will assume this is the rear
H&R coilovers with camber arms
M'z Full Lip Kit. SEM black semi-gloss - this makes your car
This all looks good, no TIP change when you added the CAI?
"3" emblem relocated from rear of the car to on dash - Why?
Turbo emblem on dash - Why, do you need to be reminded that you have boost?
Axela Badges on front bumper and back rear - Why, it is a US car?
Window Visor - Why?
Too many photos that have been modified, your car is extremely good looking without filters and effects, as with all things, opinions are like a**holes we all have one.

Thanks for the elboration, here is mine.
A bit confused on what you're trying to convey here? You've mentioned with complimenting words and questioned with opposition to why I had made such decisions to what to lay on my car as many of us on this community do in order to personalize his/her purchase for satisfaction. Very minimal mods I have done indeed but what is the cause for the unwarranted questions? Only questions. Do my mods bring forth an ill feeling, if so why? I do appreciate good criticism but criticism goes along justified reasoning and a "because," obviously omitted here.
To shed a bit more light and to contribute some little knowledge to the ones who don't why:
1. JB SSP: I appreciate the shorter plate reach for my own improvement without the bushing? Does that gain me power if added?
2. Cork Sport: Yes, I must agree.
3. Lip Kit: Yes I agree it makes my car look a lot nicer that is why I made the purchase, but apparently in my opinion does not do the same other colors.
4. CAI: TIP change? Exhaust tip, finger tip, Q-tip?
5. 3 Emblem: Reuse if possible is not a crime and great for the environment. As a visual designer and who appreciates typography because it works for who likes to read/or can. Which also justifies the "turbo" in which I admit out of excitement one the first week of having my first boost vehicle a purchase that I did not want to waste, via placing it inside not out.
6. Axela: I hear it makes the car a lot faster. In theory why would someone take off their front plates, delete emblems or add, tint their windows, be on this forum for modifications? I see no difference having a choice.
7. Wind Visor: It's form and functionality. If it's a new concept to you and many, maybe before questioning why, to "google" it initially? Avoiding such "a$$hole" response. I allows fresh air entering the vehicle during rain without inviting and water. In addition, it also decreases and redirects the wind. Thirdly, it looks good to me. Apologies to answering a question with a question.
8. News to me that simple color contrast and a decent camera = photoshop filters and effects. I wouldn't mind discussing the difference between disposable cameras vs DSLR. If you disagree, kindly enlighten me and point out those such things and I'd be happy to leave this thread more educated. I may be exposed to be novice.
Apologies #2 if I had cause such attention. In no way shape of form I intended to offend nor raise such reactions to anyone with my mods. I thank you in taking your time elaborating

Actually had no comments for the first 5 items I listed, basic and necessary for the car. Just for you, TIP is Turbo Inlet Piping, sorry for using a seldom used acronym on this forum.
I do understand the concepts, function yes, form questionable.
I will avoid the name calling, but if you would prefer, please make your same post as above on a different forum (sp33d3rs, can use the name here) and we then can start throwing things around.
Just want to see clean pictures, that way the true look of your mods can be seen/evaluated. Do like your new vinyl, need to post those up.

Thanks for the lesson about TIP.
I did not see any name calling from your end what so ever just curious to your comments serving as just personal comments. You can continue with your critiques, you having the right to do so and why stop?
Clean pictures? So the HD photos I had taken aren't clear enough? I suggest new glasses.
As for posting on another forum, obviously is something that you're trying to promote and is not car related. With all of that said. I'll end it and you can continue to speak your mind because obviously I'm speaking to a rock because nothing is going through you nor what your saying makes no sense.

Thanks for the lesson about TIP. No problem, here to help, surprising that a "rock" would know something as complicated as this term
Clean pictures? So the HD photos I have taken aren't clear enough? I suggest new glasses. Glasses were actually replaced several months ago, I was looking for non-filtered pictures, hence the term "clean", but that is okay.
I would comment on the remaining items but since I'm a "rock", I will leave it alone. And to think a "rock" actually received three engineering degrees, flipping amazing but they just give those away.
I do wish you the best of luck in 24/7 MOTM, I would hate for those who have spent years working their cars to be victorous.

The conversation was somewhat humorous and stimulating as boredom was setting in at work, gejay was defending his mod decisions extremely well with a little sarcasm mixed in. I do thank you for such a well thought out response.
The thread ran its course with the first set of pictures and a few responses.

Is not really low at all, look at the remaining wheel gap. No tuck at all. You only look low because of the lip. id say nicer than stock but not all that impressed

did you get the side lips yet? I wish there was a group buy, this s*** is expensive!
yah I'ved had the side lips as they all came together, but installed it on a week later. If you look closely you'll see it on the car wash photo. A group buy would have been awesome but I hear that you can get them cheaper on ebay. Akosiharold got the front lip way cheaper than what I paid if I broke it down.
So there are other possibilities of getting them cheap. Also haggling with Pete also helps.

That was a day for celebration, just for the record, own something with a little better ride, little more hp, does not smile and does not have the chicken pox.
If possible please send the store's name where you get those outstanding hats your wear.
