    CONGRATS on becoming a father !! But also, great to hear that you're now also celebrating somewhat of an anniversary! Keep providing quality, that will be more and more recognized and bought. Not worried about that at all. You've got that covered. Great to see videos again!

    Its okay. You don't have to pretend the roof spoiler wouldn't come off. You can say you just liked it xDD. My FK7 came with that as well. Wasn't too jazzed about it but it started growing on me. Don't see too much of that in my areas. Seeing all those FK8s together makes me wish I sucked it up and forked over for a Type R when I bought my car but I am more than pleased with my FK7.

    If you don't want to fit aftermarket wheels then you should run the OEM FK8 wheels with some 5x114.3 to 5x120 adapters.

      This would be a lot harder, and more expensive, as the FL5 panels are moulded to be much wider rather than a clip on arch like the FK8.
