Washed it last night. Drove it around today.

Holy cow nice Hawaii, ironically I was about to post the same exact thing! I just exited my browser to upload my pic and came back to your beauty. Don't know if you saw my post earlier but my car came to the dealer without carbon diffuser and I liked it anyways! I was thinking maybe deciding in the future whether to add it on or not

Quick wash earlier , nothing fancy, I'll detail once the weather breaks

Looks awesome Ian. Love the m performance bits added already. Yup the stock diffuser looks great. At least better than my old LCI F80. Just have to powder coat my exhaust tips gloss black now.

Time to replace the orange reflectors.

Keep posting pics buddy!!!

Lol! I was all over the place. I only got to see blue in person before ordering;

@hawaii I am going to take your advice about the amber markers (looks much cleaner without them breaking up the front lines) but I already feel VA law gives me enough slack as it is haha

Yes, car is quieter in cabin without ASD, but that means you can hear more of the engine/exhaust sounds - pops and burbles, especially on downshifts and over-run are much more audible. Another benefit is there's zero noise difference in the cabin when moving between comfort and Sport+ modes.
Takes a bit of getting used to but I'm def sticking with it - prefer the "au naturel" sounds.

With perseverance I did it! Thanks.

I picked her up from the dealer on New Year's Eve, and dropped her off to Classic Auto Fitness for XPEL wrap job.

Applied Cquartz UK edition to my MG. Awesome stuff.

Picture doesn't do the coating much justice.

Also installed carbon fiber rear lip.

Replaced the factory stick shift knob/boot and parking brake boot with leather versions (purchased from ECS Tuning). To my eye, they look great. Not a fan of alcantara, blue stitching or not.

As a side note, it was a b*tch pulling off the shifter knob. Following advice I read elsewhere, I put it into 2nd gear, climbed into the back seat, and then pulled like hell with both hands. Just when I was about to give up, the knob popped off and I went flying backwards onto the back seat. -scr

Really? Shift knob came off easy for me. Was worried it was going to be tough after reading people having a hard time and almost hitting themselves in the face LOL.

You were lucky. At first, I tried sitting in the driver's seat and just pulling up as hard as I could. This failed miserably, so I went back to my laptop to do more research. That's when I stumbled upon the "back seat maneuver", along with numerous warnings about not getting my face (or family jewels) anywhere near the action. -scr

Driver seat worked my me, put it in neutral and pulled straight up. I'm guessing my car was built end of shift, barely put the shift knob on

Ordered these today.

Ever got your caps? How is the fitment/finish? Mind sharing the link? I want to order a pair.

They haven't arrived yet. I will update when i do. eBay has a lot and there's a place in the U.K. that will color match. It's pricy (for plastic) with the pound conversion so I went the eBay set see if I even like them before I waste $300.

Thanks for the suggestion (Classic Auto Fitness)! I've been looking for a place close to me... I live in Philly.

I will do the same. Bring the car straight over to the detailer , without a wash from the dealer.
