I didn't do it myself, too many ways to screw up with fuel pumps & lines. It took the shop about 8 hours to install just HPFP, LPFP & splicing in the flex fuel sensor & analyzer to the stock fuel line. If I had them replace the lines that came with the kit, they would've had to drop the tank to run the line which would've taken another 4-5 hours

I'm sure if they had done it before, it could've taken way less time. My guess is a shop that has done this before would take 4-5 hours.

Installed Future Classic 10mm spacers, applied ceramic coating to calipers and wheels, and installed a CF rear wing.

Btw, has anyone noticed that "M2" is stamped at the top of the front wheel wells?

Installed a Racing Dynamics strut brace today. Got it a few days ago but didn't install it since it was meant for stock top hats and not my Vorshlag camber plates so I ordered some washers/shims on Amazon which got here today.

Added alcantara armrest, gauge cluster and extended knee pads to both sides. Driving feels a lot better as I'm constantly in contact with all the nicer materials now. Just feels like a nicer car to drive and be in. Especially with all the interior mods combined. Should have been stock. I was never blown away with the stock base interior. Think I'll do the subs next to go with the Etons I already replaced.

Due to placing myself at a wrong part of the track, I got an opportunity to practice CPR. Correct-Pause-Recover. Had to do it twice in rapid succession, to save it from resulting 100+ mph skid.

It's such a small detail but a really nice one!
I've ordered it from AliExpress took about a month and it's just 3 bucks (compared to you know who, who charges 30$ ) so I gave it a try and it's really nice! And it lights up with the red light.

To match my Racing Dynamics front brace, I got a KC Designs rear brace which bolts inside the trunk.

New Steering wheel and red trim

Had IND paint me a red steering wheel trim piece to match the start button. Also new is the OEM Alcantara Performance wheel. Really love this wheel! Feels great in hand and has some great features for lap times, temps, and RPM. The 1/4 mile mode offers a drag strip light tree using the RPM lights. It gauges reaction time and 1/4 time. I don’t have the track transponder hooked up to record lap times automatically, but by push of button in race mode it will keep lap times as they are completed and store fast laps.

The red is maybe a little off in the picture, but it’s the same red on the start button with a gloss finish. I’m Alpine White with a fair amount of carbon fiber, so the red inside and red tow hook gives it a little color.

Thanks! It is 18%, which is actually what most rear vehicle windows come with from the factory. It is perfect. It also slightly changed the acoustics - almost "echoey" on the interior.

Installed the Autotecknic rear diffuser from the guys
@ind-distribution. Fitment was 8.5/10. The holes aligned, but not enough to get the center pin back in. There was also a tiny gap on both sides where the diffuser comes down to meet the rear quarter panel. Hardly noticeable. Overall, I think it's slightly overpriced, but happy I got it.

That first pic, super clean, clean wheels, tire dressing, and dusty tread, just great.

Is that an OEM CS spoiler?

You aren't wasting any time! Excited to see what else you have in store for this car.

Admittedly, I have been blowing through several minor changes and having too much fun. I'll probably break for winter now. The mod bug is a hard one to fight off.

As VisualEcho said, it's an eBay CS replica. It was really the perfect scenario because I typically don't like eBay stuff - just too many issues. However, I wasn't interested in spending $1000+ for the OEM. This one was super cheap, and the looks are spot on for me. Definitely don't want to put cheap parts on a nice car, but this replica fit the bill perfectly. The weave also matched the Autotecknic mirror caps and diffuser perfectly.
