Install is a pure PITA, just like stated above.

No oil cooler guard, no need.

I haven’t tried a front lip. Too many speed bumps in my area. I wouldn’t be able to clear them.

4mm on the plate out

I tried to pull it back off but it was stuck too well so have to live with that one


And no, you’re wrong on the mirrors.
Comp unit upgrade instead of the 3 piece mod (auto ID).

The lacquer started to peel on the carbon cap on both units after 3 years which I don’t think is great.

Picked up my car after some routine maintenance at europeanautosource , including an oil change and new PS4S rears (no idea why they are wearing so much faster than the fronts ). Also installed some 5mm spacers all the way around to complement the Apex VS5-RS's and had the spindle bolts undone and redone, along with anti-seize where applicable to try to address the clicking I had been hearing. So far, it seems to have worked!

Hope they didn't over-use the anti-seize on your hubs, they are pretty known for that (AUTOCouture is as well), and it leaches out over time all over your rotors.

Just wrapped up a 5-day, 1500 mile road trip. DC -> Louisville -> New Harmony, IN for the eclipse -> Louisville -> DC. Other than a nervous hour or so in the western MD mountains when we hit some unexpected sub-freezing temps and light snow (I'd just swapped the PS4Ss back on... oops), this car is just so much fun and confidence-inspiring to put a bunch of miles on. We hit the aforementioned snow, dense fog and multiple rounds of moderate to heavy rain, ran empty interstate to West Virginia 2-lane mountain roads, and the M2 was a rock-solid blast the whole way.

It is now back in my garage, absolutely filthy and minus one wheel center cap that escaped somewhere in rural Indiana, but that's well-earned dirt and $15 I'm happy to spend.

This car does so much so well and I love it.
