Good job brother. Love it.

Acexxon · 09-17-2017, 02:58 PM

Looks very nice! Do you mind taking some close pics of the PSM carbon covers in the front? I am thinking to get them, but not sure how well they fit.

Thanks !

Thanks man!

I really dig those headlights too, but wonder what their quality is like.

Those headlights are mean!

That said, you need to be super careful about who applies it - I had it applied on my Lexus with some initially spectacular results, but the coating failed within months and when I tried to get the the detailer that applied it to fix it under warranty, he walked.

I don't blame the product for a minute, but here in AU, it wasn't well supported so I ended up having to make a claim on my car insurance

I can put you in touch with the modesta rep in australia, if you complain to him abt the installer, he has some leverage because he could threaten to pull modesta rights away from the installer.

Thanks for the kind offer JLX,

I believe that the detailer has had his Modesta rights revoked so I believe he has likely screwed up more than one car. That said, if I'd had the contact at the time (in 2015), I'd have pursued it ... someone else in the detailing community came to the rescue and while my car was re-coated in Kamikaze (a great product), the evidence of the Modesta failure was still there unfortunately.

Like all these things, the product is only as good as the support it gets!

Look up OSSDesigns, they're custom order retrofits, you either send in your headlights or purchase a spare set for them to work on.

CAR IS MEAN! Your cosmetic setup is inspirational, so glad I got BSM. Are your wheels the carbon graphite finish? What are the offsets?

Car looks amazing but man, I'm thinking those wheels must be a hard to clean!

How's the Remus to live with day to day? Any problems aligning it with the M Performance Diffuser?

Can confirm the wheels are horrible to clean! But it's all worth it!

Remus is ok to live with day to day, just have to be a little more careful with the throttle in areas where you need to be quiet! A valve controlling module also helps with that (close it).

In terms of alignment, the Remus is both good and bad. Because the exhaust is assembled from separate parts, including the tips, you have a huuuge amount of adjust-ability to get things exactly how you want. However, you could spend two whole days before you get things perfect. Prodigy. will also attest to that.

Haha yes i can, didn't quite take me 2 days but if you are ocd like us it can take a while to get the tips perfectly aligned.
