Sedan Chat Thread
I just realized that one can has Seabring Tuning on both the top and the bottom, whereas the other only has it on the bottom. That was weird, but whatever. I do like having the swoopy FI logo on the tips, instead of the words "Fast Intentions".
Hope the tips don't stick out too far from the bumper. I hate that.
Right thats what I was trying to say if I wasnt clear. Theres only 1 hanger on each muffler, both my Stillen and TopSpeed along with just about all other exhaust have 2 hangers per muffler. Just found that strange is all......
You know, FI does without the hangers on their cats, too. I think FI has hanger issues.

Hey guys, this is my current headlight build HERE. I want to add switchback LEDs to the turn signals that behave the same way as my halos. White when driving and blinking amber when the turn signal is activated. I also want to add LED bulbs to my fog lights to their light output will match the bright white color of my headlights. If you guys could give me any links pointing me in the right direction that would be great. Most sites I can find only have shop by bulb size and I honestly have no idea since I'm pretty new to the car. I tried to navigate VLEDS and couldn't tell the bulbs apart :/

The switchbacks turn signals offer a Lumen of 570 for White and 460 for Amber. They stay white while headlights are on and alternate amber/white when turns are on.

The fogs I went with 6k 80w Cree LED fogs that state they project an actual Lumen of 800. These are extremely bright during night or day as well.

Here is a crappy pick of when I first installed everything.

I personally went with some 6k switchbacks LED's and 6k fogs LED's from ebay. They have been in my car problem free for over a year now and I love the output of them. I saved hundreads going this route and couldnt be happier. Just my $0.02. I also have a set of 6k Philips bulbs in my headlights and I feel it ties it all together and matches very well.

Hmm I don't think I'd like the flashing with my current set up, it looks nice alone but I think it'd be too much with my halos. Anyone if there are any switchbacks out there for the turn signal that alternate amber and off when your blinker is on instead of amber and white?
While on the lighting subject....installed some Cree fogs in wife's car yesterday. I'm really diggin them...they are a very golden yellow with the lens on and if I ever choose to change it up...I simply remove the lens to a crips 6k output 
. They are extremely bright and I also swapped in new Philips 6k headlights bulbs as well...heres a few pics.

Hey everyone! I already created a separate post, but I wanted to include here for any feedback before I pick up my parts today.
I've searched through the forum and was unable to come up with anyone who has Hydrodipped any parts in the engine bay. I'm contemplating on doing my engine, radiator, battery, and brake fluid covers. I was able to come up with Brad's post when he hydrodipped his grill and front chin spoiler, and the results looked good.
More than likely I am going to Hydrodip the parts in a CF weave. Reason being is because I am picking up my Stillen Gen3's from the PC today, and I have not been able to find a shop that can paint match the covers to the color I did my intakes. The PC color is Illusion Copper 2, my car color is Graphite Shadow, I think this will compliment each other well.
I wanted to know how well has it held up so far in regards to the heat? Has any fading or cracking occurred? Would you recommend it?
This is obviously a much more economic approach to having them wrap in real CF. As we all know to source all of those parts already wrapped is nearly impossible.
All feedback is appreciated! Thank in advance.
