Duraflex, WRX/STI Chargespeed Bottomline reps, cheapest I could find that wouldn't hurt me too much if this is a fail.

Interesting good. It's like a chargespeed bottomline for a vertex skirt.

I'm going to use them with the stock sides, might be overkill with the Vertex.

Ditto. Even worse when you drop good cheese in it.

Finally got my new windshield put it. Shop did a great job, very clean install, they took their time and were careful not to break the A-pillar or B-pillar, all clips were unbroken and everything went back as it was when I arrived. I couldn't be happier with the work done.

FYI there is a ton of stuff that has to come off for a Z windshield to be put in. Despite what they say when/if you ever get it done, you're gonna want them to put it in at their shop and not at your home/work.

Looks like the sides are going to be a good fit. Just some final measurements before brackets are made.

Heading to my old job at Bjs tire, to get my front Nitto Motivos mounted...
Wonder if they will still let me mount em myself, I dont trust the new guys there, at least I can still use my badge and say " oh yeah I transferred to another store, let me borrow your machine lol" and give the kid 10 bucks.

Sidejobs sundays lol

Found this little treasure at the local junkyard for the incredibly low price of $5!! Cleans up the look and actually improves the radio reception!

I removed my stock shift **** and installed my new Auger Resources black Delrin **** yesterday. The Lowes ballcock washer works excellently as a finisher.
