And all the way to just a few minutes ago

Unsure what happened, but I noticed my driver fender liner rubbing last night on the interstate, wore a hole through it, and my grille being loose at the bottom and the splitter front and center being cracked and separating from the bumper where it meets under the fog/turns. Driver’s side belly pan is obviously down a bit, so looks like some hardware has gone missing as well. So I guess I’ll put it on stands tomorrow and troubleshoot further.

Whoever wrapped it, might've taken off the bumper and other parts to get it on there? Just a theory

I appreciate the theory - already checked that route out and was not the culprit. I hope it’s just replace hardware/splitter and I’m good to go.

Both sides were rubbing the fender liner and frame at full lock: SVE R325s 19X10 ET+40 with 285/35/19 Nitto G2 tires.

@shogun32 to the rescue again. Threw on 8mm worth of spacers tonight and it seems to have done the trick. Looks better too.

A little poke, but may go to 10mm for a touch more.

I also got a last bit of air out of the lines and pedal feels normal again. Went on a fun drive after to try out the bigger brakes. :like:

It's that +40ET that's getting you, my +35 doesn't rub. With that said 8mm is plenty to avoid any issues.

Those rear tires are skinny enough that I think the badge is right and the body is wrong.
that's the cheaper version with Hamster power:crackup:

Possibly from when they were wrapping the front cover they had to remove the pan?

Cut the green wire for center channel and adjusted sound and fade. Haven't tested enough to tell, but I have high hopes for better sound from what I've read.

Unfortunately not - only took off the taillights and vents on the hood. The lower grille had been loose from the bottom for a bit, so I think all the wind movement and things not being tightened up probably just finally took its toll on the parts.

Honestly expected that way laggier than it was.
Could have been my laptop during converting the mp4 to ani. Haven't rebooted it for a while. I will keep that in mind before creating a new video.
