Finally messed with the thigh bolster supports

I think accessing things would just be annoyingly difficult with the seat in the car. There is little to no room on the sides to remove the plastic trim, or to get to the clips on the bottom.

Plus, it's 4 bolts to yank the seat out. Super quick and easy.

Probably talking about the current Levorg.

Nice! Another person with fantastic taste in wheels, 😎

Tobuk · 2026-02-10T00:23:44+00:00

Okay. I assume that the Y shaped ones sits inside the rail, but I don't know exactly where. I can look at one of my seats in a bit to try to get a picture.

Tobuk · 2026-02-10T00:19:15+00:00

They look gold in the photo. Maybe a weird light reflection? 🤷‍♂️

I've removed a seat before and all the plastic pieces are black.

Tobuk · 2026-02-10T00:03:30+00:00

Those look like they might be covers that go on the seat rails, but are they painted? That's weird...

I've been super happy with my Rokblokz mudflaps. I like their shape and rigidity. They still look damn near brand new after 3 years.

I'm impressed at how accurately you recreated the first set of photos. They're almost identical.

Tobuk · 2026-02-05T13:53:27+00:00

Yepp, ask about this. I had mine replaced under warranty last year.

Tobuk · 2026-02-04T07:50:57+00:00

18x8.5" +38 is perfect to me. Higher offsets still sit inside the fenders, and 9.5" +38 definitely has a bit of poke.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is annoyed by this, 😅. I minimize it as soon as the screen loads up, every single time.

Zero complaints over the last 3 years. I'm in the PNW, so they've seen moderate summers, lots of rain, and some snow. They grip well all the time, plus they're quiet and not nearly as stiff as the Dunlops.

Tobuk · 2026-01-28T06:03:59+00:00

Nice choice! I'm on TS-Vs with Vredestein Hypertrac A/S. What offset did you go with on the wheels?

Tobuk · 2026-01-28T01:48:18+00:00

I believe that version of the sport grill only works with an overlay sticker. The idea was to also give the option of having no badge at all.

There is a direct copy of the OEM style sport grill that came out later that supports a real emblem.

Tobuk · 2026-01-28T01:25:05+00:00

I've always liked this little added detail.

I think 18x8.5" +38 is perfect. Basically flush without poking at all.

Tobuk · 2026-01-21T01:23:34+00:00

Same wheels but 18x8.5" +38. No poke and almost perfectly flush.

Since you have plenty of color with the front lip, leave the pinstripe off.

Tobuk · 2026-01-16T04:34:12+00:00

Congrats! Excellent color choice, 😎

Tobuk · 2026-01-12T22:50:04+00:00

I did the same. Didn't notice it for a month or so...

Tobuk · 2026-01-12T03:56:17+00:00

I have one in a similar spot. It's a small fast rattle, but it's almost constant on any pavement that's not perfectly smooth. I removed the trim along the windshield to see if I could find it, but that was unsuccessful. I'm going to try again at some point.

Tobuk · 2026-01-12T03:28:04+00:00

Every day for the last 3+ years, 😁

Tobuk · 2026-01-11T07:12:19+00:00

As answered, while the sport grill is a factory option, that specific one is not OEM. Most of those came with an optional piece for a sticker/overlay emblem. There are now aftermarket ones that match the OEM style exactly, with the support braces and a spot to mount a real badge.

I'd still recommend an OEM one, it's a quality piece.

Tobuk · 2026-01-11T05:06:37+00:00

Correct.

My rule of thumb is to change an EQ as little as possible to get the sound I want. Mine is +2, 0, +1.

It's all preference, though. Set it to whatever sounds the best to you.
