SPL Parts FLCA

I can confirm that the g20 lower control arms and tie rod ends fit properly. Install wasn't too bad if you have the right tools. I personally think the NVH isn't bad or noticeable. I have only about 200 miles on them of mainly daily driving so hard to tell but overall a nice improvement in steering feel and feedback in the corners.

The front caster bushings don't fit properly and are being remade. The car is still on stock alignment because of the front caster bushing issues. I will come back with an update on the bushings, I would also skip this in favor of the arms if they ever decide to develop those.

Curious to see your alignment once you get that done. See what sort of camber you are able to achieve with the FLCA.

Will do although I don't think id be going too aggressive on the camber. Planning on taking more pictures the second time I go to change the caster bushings.
