Another excellent video my friend. Just got a few questions. Just got myself a csl & an exo & im in the process of ceramic coating my carbon body kit. Did you use the same applicator on all 3 coatings & also did you use the same microfiber towel to wipe the ceramic coating off for all 3 coatings? Last thing, did you have to clean your carbon body kit before ceramic coating? Sorry for the thousand questions. This is my first time ceramic coating anything.
Use a new applicator for each layer you do. If you use the same one, you increase the chance of marring because the coating will dry by the time you move onto the next layer. Ceramic is literally a thin layer of glass so the small particles could cause issues. Same goes for the towel. New towel to wipe after each layer. Yes, clay bar or auto scrub to remove any contaminants, spray with ipa or ipa base product to remove any residual oils, then coat.
First? Lol. I wish I could get custom headlights but I love the way the lights turn with the steering. If I could get the new subispeed euro but had the headlights move, I'd be in heaven
Those headlights cost so much lol I just went retrofit bc the cost is roughly the same if you have a pro shop do plus added benefit of customizing. Just my 2 cents. Imagine if they could retrofit your lights to keep the steering responsive lights and better output plus whatever crazy ideas you have.
The subispeed's and aftermarket options are not worth the cost. Output is sub par, materials and components used won't last. You're better off saving up a bit more and going the route I went.
@@Autofreakgarage I just want the inner turn signals from the subispeeds. The part that looks kinda like mustang tail lights. Other than that I know that they don't have a good reputation. Just something about that part of the lights.
They are real carbon. It’s a fiberglass composite lip with real carbon laid on top. All the carbon pieces available are like that. Very rare that you’ll find a true carbon part through and through.
Do you have any issues with passengers getting out of the car and possibly scraping the side skirts/extensions? Also looking forward to the retrofitted lights. Actually bought a kit from them recently. Great service 👍
maybe a car with a different platform RWD or fwd fk8 might be particle enough while fast Honesty I would have choose type r over sti if I did not live in Canada with 6 months winter lol
@@Autofreakgarage Yeah the looks is definitely a negative, I was only convinced by the full black fk8 As for fwd though, it really isn't as bad, the mid-corner bit is arguably better than sti just because of weight and exit on power somehow does not push No trying to gain hate, I own an STi just sharing some personal feelings STI does have more setup potentials and you can go crazy like toe out the rear and stuff
Just bought a new sti and although I take crazy care with it it already got a very small clear coat scratch. What do you recommend to get the scratch out and how I should protect my paint?
That by far is the cleanest car on the planet. 🚗✨
What's up bro! Recent Sub here and new WRX owner. Love the channel! What is that light bar you had installed in the front bumper? Thanks!👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾
It’s an s4 drl fog bezel
Car looks killer
This is why I follow your build.. clean simple yet those are the things that can make the car pop if done right. Beautiful subae 🔥

Thanks for the very helpful info. All your videos are giving me confident in doing my own work to my car.
I’m super excited on the headlights.

What website did you buy those rims? them look badass
Lots of vendors sell these wheels. Just a matter of finding who has them in stock.
It’s been a few years. How has your front lip held up in terms of rock chips with the ceramic coating?
I no longer have this car, but it held up very well over the years I had it.
The vision you had for your car is the almost exact vision I have for mine! I have to ask, what tire setup are you running? Keep up the content!
Michelin PS4’s 265/35/18
I run a 2014 FXT as my daily and it’s pretty fun. My 2015 is the garage queen.
Sell me your carbon hood 😤😤😤 wait time like 3 months
Haha sorry brother. Not selling anytime soon.
Like if he should get an evo ten (x)
Haha I think Devin’s got the evo’s covered for all of UA-cam.
@@Autofreakgarage yeah but he slaps shit together. You do it right
Im trying to get a c8 (base)
@@9988amrit really? The man knows those cars inside and out. I wouldn’t call what he does “slapping things together. “
For you lip kit are they legit carbon fiber or are they wrapped? Thanks.
They are real carbon. It’s a fiberglass composite lip with real carbon laid on top. All the carbon pieces available are like that. Very rare that you’ll find a true carbon part through and through.
I have a gut feeling that you are going with the acura jewel lens headlight?
Absolutely not haha. It’s going to be a very OEM+ setup.

The only passenger I have is my wife and she knows to step over them.
maybe a car with a different platform RWD or fwd
fk8 might be particle enough while fast
Honesty I would have choose type r over sti if I did not live in Canada with 6 months winter lol
The type r styling is too over the top for me. It’s a good car but the looks and fwd are two deal breakers for me.
@@Autofreakgarage Yeah the looks is definitely a negative, I was only convinced by the full black fk8

No trying to gain hate, I own an STi just sharing some personal feelings
STI does have more setup potentials and you can go crazy like toe out the rear and stuff
Very nice ...How much does it cost for the coating? I'm planning to get it but since it's just a month old , when should I apply?
The link is below for the current pricing. Apply whenever you want. Please check out my detailing videos on the process.
