Any thoughts on the inserts? Debating on going with ECS or 034 inserts.

Ecs should make less noise but be slightly softer. They will both do the job though. I have the 034 and they hum at certain loads.

I like; looks great man.

I did something similar on my GP; had the rear and front lower fascia areas painted to match the rims color.

Thanks. I like it, but I'm not sure if I like it better than black. I might buy some black vinyl so I can just switch it back and forth whenever I feel like it.

Pretty much what dub said. I have 034 mounts/inserts for my motor and transmission and just had these left to finish up the drivetrain. They do their job, taking care of the remaining sloppiness I was feeling in hard shifts while adding zero NVH. I would have gone with 034's but these were considerably cheaper and judging by the video they have on their product page, do a good enough job. These are probably a little quieter than those would have been, at the expense of some firmness.

I was not expecting the two rear-most inserts to be as soft as they are. I don't know why but I was expecting sort of a hard plastic, but they're fairly rubbery. Was a little put off by that to be honest but like I said, they work.

I'm going to give it a week or two of driving to really get a feel for how they perform, like I like to do with all things of this nature, before giving my official review, but I went for a long drive last night and so those are my first impressions.
