So to clarify,the s4 corksport lip will fit the s5 front bumper? I really like the simplicity of this lip, so any custom work to make it fit? Deciding between this ans the mazda speed lip

I would think that it would take far too much modding to make it work considering all the s5 lips available

I've got tie rods with built in spacers, and supernow tie rod ends. Like I said I'm still NA, so I don't know if I would be able to use them to their full potential. But I was thinking about JTP knuckles at some point, just not sure how they would be for DDing.

Oh that's dope. Was the difference noticeable?

Yeah, I read horror stories of super twitchy steering, and life threatening drives in the rain haha.. I didn't know your car was your daily :X

I've had them on the car so long, I barely even remember lol. I think it brings it to about stock s-chassis angle (which is a a few degrees more). But I definitely could use more. The first corner at that event was a big sweeper that like pinched in at the end, and I would make it through almost all of the sweeper, get past the inner clip an then just loose it and spin. Granted I know I need more practice and I haven't driven in like two years, but more angle wouldn't hurt.

I always wondered about street driving with knuckles, but I've never really gotten a solid answer from anyone. I'm sure if they're engineered and designed right that it wouldn't be a problem, or maybe ones that aren't incredibly agressive with tons of angle. Hopefully I'll be retiring the FC from daily/only car/has to be reliable duty, so I can TII swap it and then maybe do knuckles.
