Nice gains!, Im pushing 305whp and 271trq. Mines loud as hell in MM, seems like a baby godzilla. Gotta love that VQ sound on full throttle.

I applaud your choice of colour sir

As for the stickers melting, depends on the material. If high heat vinyl is used, shouldnt be any issues.

Thanks and as Hex mentioned, they are high heat vinyl so they shouldn't melt. I used professional grade clear coat on top of the stickers and then ceramic coated them.

255/40 for the win

New 255/40 size did the trick. It’s taken a bit but I think the stance is just about perfect. 2 sets of tires and 2 sets of spacers later. The ride is much better than the 255/35 as well.
