keep in mind, I don't know what purpose they serve either. the whole thing about cooling the rotors down is just to increase life of the system and decrease rotor warpage.

anyway, these add-ons just aren't doing it for me personally.

My soft top is not broken. Its decaying. AND how dare you call any rwd corolla shit. My SR5 owns all of the other SR5's. Please stay on topic.




This fender mod still looks like shit. It makes me think of brake resivoir socks.
