I would be interested if I could go back to stock with the same effort as the install. My limited experience with Chinese retrofit kits is that they don't hold up to daily use over time and you wind...

I slapped on a set of Bosch Icon blades. Between those and my A/S Michelins I'm ready for whatever mother nature can throw at me. If not there is always the AWD GX.

Gauging interest, Corsa Catless Xpipe

I'm in DFW and put this X-pipe on a few weeks ago. Honestly I don't see the value in it and would rather put my old stock one back on and sell the x-pipe to fund a new V1G2. The guy I bought it...
