You're probaby aware of this, but in case you aren't, you'll want to install the badges and trunk spolier before coating...really even before polishing. If not, you'll have major issues with them sticking.

You just get those headlights through Umaitza?

I ordered back in April / May and finally received my headlights earlier this month. What a long wait but the upgrade is worth it…
Yeah mine took about 2 and a half weeks to come in. So worth it though!

Installed Project Gamma intakes. Pretty straight forward install, and they look and sound incredible. Next up will be DCT clutches, meth, and Dyno tune.

Which splitter is this? Looks really nice.

I'm finding, in pictures anyways, the center piece lip that is most common just isn't for me. and the two piece splitter doesn't look right either...

Thanks! I tend not to be a huge cosmetic-only upgrade type of guy, but this looks quite good. I like carbon with sakhir orange and it's a lot sportier looking than the flat plastic piece it replaces.

I've thought about a spoiler but haven't decided if it would be too much, especially given I don't intend to put a front splitter on* to balance it out a bit.



*as I'd quickly destroy it

I'm about to pull my second destroyed front splitter off. I've had the car for 5 months. I might run around without one for a bit just to stop the cash flow that's going for new front splitters right now.

yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. And I have my KWs set to ~20mm lower than CP in the front, so that only makes it worse.

Thank you so much, I'm not into ordinary setups and my selection process is my signature 🤩

Thumbs up

I changed my Start engine button to red and added some M performance carbon fiber exhaust tips. I love the new exhaust look, I don't even think I'm change the exhaust now, maybe I'll just add downpipes.

That's cool, when I replaced my chrome tubes for some slanted end CF tips I added couple fins to the diffuser to complete the effect.
