@detailersdomain was this the ballpark you paid in parts for this?

thank you and yes, I was just going to try to get the invoice from my parts guy.

Very nice indeed and while it looks stunning (that was pretty much going to be a given), I guess the 2170 dollar question is how does it drive? Do you notice any difference.

Looking forward to seeing more install pics, were there any issues with closing the hood?

a bit tighter a nice added driving touch.

no issues with closing the hood, unfortunately the tech was too busy to take photos but I will definitely have some final photos.

what I did was I found the carbon fiber and strut brace off a rear end collision BMW M4, so my pricing was a bit lower than the above.

UltraMagneticAL · 03-15-2017, 02:01 PM

i wonder if that cf bit makes a difference compared to just doing the alloy bit.
