That doesn't look tooo bad! I have LED bulbs for those parking lights just sitting here. I don't mind the amber so I left well enough alone (the LED bulbs were free with an order I placed somewhere along the lines. But seeing that making me rethink it - maybe I'll give them a chance and see how it looks in person.

My (2016) DRL's stay on all the time now, so those would too if I did the swap. Always figured it'd look like upside down exclamation points but your pic is swaying me.

I need more mods on the list like a hole in the head right now though lol

Thanks! I bought the entire front assembly (including under tray and inner fender liner) for $700 total (total of 11 parts). Rear bumper cost me $450 (total of 2 parts). The optional LED light was $320. My paint for both front and rear came out to $550. Let me know if you want more detailed info about the conversion

Exciting! Can't wait to see what the look like on and how they fit.
Still waiting for my tracking number so I'll have to live vicariously through yours until then.

Center caps look amazing. Are able to do a write up of how you made them?

When I purchased my 2014 Touring with the sport package it came with Swift springs. The stock shocks just are not a good match for the stiffer springs. I finally got a set of the Konis Sport shocks and replaced the stock shocks. Very significant difference. The car is more composed and the ride is actually better, especially when going over bumps. No regrets.

Springs without going coilovers is like... bad.

You might want to consider camber toe arms to make sure your alignment stays good
