I couldnt agree more!

aksilx - I agree! I have not seen them on An ILX so far so you will def have that going for it and a bit of a different look

I emailed K&N and described the issue with the differences in the SI and ILX we will see what they say, hopefully they say they will work on it...LOL

We will see

Just use flickr. Upload a picture and they give you like 8 different links for different sizes. One of the two smallest sizes is perfect for an avatar.

I like it because you can upload a grainy shot in 1024 then use the 800 image and it'll show up such better quality.

does anyone know if the plastic chrome trim around the grille comes off? or has anyone done it yet? I assume its just held on by clips but I'd rather not break it if someone has done it before and could explain how to take it off. thanks!

Does anyone know off-hand if the Eibach RSB (4031.312) goes in as-is or is the additional hardware kit for the bar needed (4031.312HKR)? I feel like I found a site that said the kit was necessary, but then again I can't remember the name of the site... In any case, I am really looking forward to getting the bar in ASAP

I was in the Philippines in May 2013!!! What a beautiful country.

Manilla not so much but Cebu, Bohol, Boracay was paradise.

Never been in such a hot climate, I almost died hahahahahahha

You just need the rear bar. I had it on my car for 10k miles and had no problems with end-links or anything. Just be sure to install the right way up

Work event code named "booze cruise" tomorrow night. Should be pretty entertaining getting all the interns drunk.

So i used the S204 lip on mine and can say they run wide. You generally have to heat them up or bolt them on and flex them snug.

That being said I think the CS lip could fit, but it's not going to fit flush against the bumper without work.

Really? Mine fit perfectly.

The cs looks to go more down than out. That id think would be harder to match up properly. Depending on how much it costs give it a try.
