well, i never have a problem with making a fool of myself.

after spending $850 on the wing, all i can say is:

my girlfriend hates it with a passion, i can stand anything except her constant bickering about this " carbon fiber park bench".

Not feeling it, but everyone has their own style and taste. Steering wheel looks weird, you should've gone JDM if you were gonna be taking things off and replacing them.

HAHA! At least you have a sense of humor about it. Without looking up close, it at least looks like a pro job. Not my style, but I drive a Jeep now anyway.

Other than that, I like the ride. Although you need to get this steering wheel instead:



Or even this one! Rock...all you need is a foot shaped gas pedal:

I think the wheel is a nice match, it doesn't stick out like other aftermarket wheels. JDM isn't always the best thing to go with, sometimes style can be a better feature than where the product came from. And that wing, got anyother pics? your gonna have to tutbo the car to justify such a big spoiler, but hey, it's your car and thats why you mod it, to put your signature down on it.

But if you get into an accident, your insurance might have something to say about what's covered and what's not without the airbag.

well, if that happen, you should know that anyone who mod his car would tow it back to the shop and install everything OEM than go through insurance.

i think JTso might be referring to bodily/facial injuries you might incur without a airbag versus with an airbag, not the car?

It'd be kinda hard to beat your insurance company to the car when you are laid up in the hospital for a few days/weeks.

John you must be a glutten for punishment.

Every time you post something here, people are all over you. So long as you're happy with your mods, that's all that matters. Besides, I like the way your car handles with your Teins and Toyo package.

check with your insurance what happens if you remove the airbag. if you get into an accident, they may void your policy/claim.
