Default RS 6.0 Thread

I'm a new (as of today) RS 6.0 owner. I come from a long line of performance cars, but as this is my DD wanted to get something a bit bigger (still have a miata for autox/track)
I replaced an 05 Corolla XRS (6spd, 2zz-ge 170hp)

I'd love to see this thread full of RS 6.0's, modded or otherwise to give me, and everyone, some ideas.

thanks




stable mates






Got the dealer to throw in the C-pillar storage, but haven't installed them yet.

Also, I have a nice carbon fiber shift **** that i'd like to install but the shift boot looks very weird with it, any tips to get the boot to mate up with shift ***** properly?

Indeed get rid of the A pillar tape but it is the worst thing ever! It sucks so bad peeling it and getting rid of the glue that remains... Do it on a cool day and get a heat gun. I did mine on a hot day and for some reason that made it worse.

I'm not sure I agree with you guys on the tape.. The whole window surround is taped too, as was my '05 corolla.

I think it would look odd with the tape removed personally...so tape stays for now, though i appreciate the input

think it looks much better w/ the a-pillar tape on, makes it look more stealth/continuous - but that's just me.

Just removed my tape also and installed the carbon fiber window trim. Easy to do, just peal and remove, be patient it will come off. Do it while in the sun, comes off easier.
