So far, no issues, but I've got spares. Useless mod anyway.[emoji4]

Bro, get yourself a set of decent acorn lug nuts hehe. Kyo Ei are nice. I want to run your rotors through the lathe.

Haha...thanks, but those are OEM mag type lugs. Can't do acorn for stock wheels. And yes, good eye there, brother....them rotors will see resurfacing once those pads are up. Got a spare set of EBC 7Kseries Greens in the parts bin.

Try Akebono next time bro. EBC green were noisier (at a crawl) and dirtier pads for me.

Love Akebonos, stock on the 3, but shifted to Redstuff...even cleaner w/ better bite, & at the time of purchase, cheaper.
Hobo can't complain about the spare Greens. Got lucky...those 7k series were won from an EBC giveaway somewhere.[emoji120][emoji4]

OT now, apologies.[emoji16]

Good experience on the Akebonos. Good value din.

As featured in autodeal.com, here they are:

1. Dark-tinted lights
2. Flashing brake lights
3. Fake vents and scoops
4. "Tuning chips"
5. "Turbo" whistle

Guilty or not guilty?

How do you plead?

Not guilty- but If you can consider this a "mod" its not a permanent one:

Decades ago, when I was a new driver I bought one of those 300deg wide view mirrors that you clip onto your existing rear view. Wide view na, and it also had 2 smaller "satellite" mirrors on either side for blind spots.

Kita talaga ang "buong Pilipinas" behind you with a glance, and it had a glare reduction coating which was good because untinted yung rear glass ko, and it was an ancient car that didn't have tilting setting for night mode.

Sa bigat & laki nga lang niya, every time you'd go over a rumble strip, or hit a pothole at speed yumuyuko yung rear view, so you'd have to adjust it again.

Nakakatawa nga lang to look back at that memory. Besides, with both left & right side mirrors as standard equipment on all vehicles now, they're not that useful na.

Hindi pa namemention dito yung mga nagpapalagay ng “pops and bangs” sa mga mababagal na kotse. [emoji23]

in less than a week,
i had already clipped onto the stock rear view mirror, the cheap slightly-curved rear view atermarket mirror.
after many years, it is still clipped on.
very useful, indeed.

isa lang ang pintas ko,
yung sasakyan sa likuran while driving slex. naka hi beam, and i don't have anti-glare function on it.
