I always here such mixed things about the AEM stuffz. I will be totally interested in seeing if you run into trouble with it around here with support and such.

Fitment looks pretty good but you can’t really tell till the car is on the ground.

I’ll warn you that pearl white is **expensive** and tends to crack and crack **BAD**. I have gone through some fenders in the front and one decent dent and you can peel the paint of in sheet like 4-5" sheets. The OEM pearl white on my car is a nightmare but i have heard good things about the white they run on the new is350s. I guess they can spray it thinner or something.

Any Body kitz?

I run an AEM stand alone on my S14 and never had a problem with it… Before that i ran a Greddy E-Manage and it was horrible… I get all my tuning done at TurboTrix, they are awesome, So far the car is getting sprayed arctic white with a pink pearl clearcoat but thats subject to change at any given time… I have a URAS Type 4 bodykit on the way. The pic of the fitment looking down on the wheel was taken while the car was on the ground. Its back up in the air now because my wilwood big brakes just got here, im putting them on, then its off to new orleans for a week 🙂

The color of the paint has nothing to do with its ability to withstand teh elements. Its the product used, and making sure the mixes are SPOT on. If youre peeling your paint off in sheets, the car was not prepped correctly, period. And yes it is exepensive, any pearl is. The real drawback to pearl white is if you get in a fender bender down the road and trying to match the paint. One of the hardest colors to do…
