i'm going to sound very nooby right now but does the sound of hitting axle come from the passenger side? or what does it even sound like? Because sometimes when going onto inclines in parking lots etc I hear some clunking on the passenger side which I'm assuming are my coils. I might raise it a few threads just to diagnose the problem. It only started happening when I dumped my fronts all the way down. it's just weird that it's only on my passenger side

That's classic axle slapping :yikes:

Do you hear it when going over dips or bumps?

welp, I better start saving up lol.
thanks guys
btw since both of you are local-ish, any place you would recommend? I know Empire Fab is the go-to place for C notches but I feel like because they're known for that, they probably charge up the ass

ordered the ECS badgeless gti grille with red stripes. pretty excited, hoping to install it this week at least before fall semester starts :(
I think the notch filler won't look too bad since it's black and my car is black.
I will eventually get it filled professionally, just gotta save money. thank u based god for financial aid

:laugh: all jokes aside, I really do love the knob. It really flows well with the interior of the car, doesn't look like some $40 jdm ricer knob. The knob itself and engraved gear numbers are A+ quality. Plus, it just feels great especially with it being weighted
