With the BMS can, no, it goes in and out without the brace removal.

Mishimoto looks same to me.

Ah, I have heard of Brixton. Those are amazing wheels. I'd hate to see the prices of Brixton wheels, good LAWD.

Prior to now, Signature was manufactured by BC Forged. Now the manufacturer is Brixton? Where is Brixton's manufacturing facility?

Quality has always been good irrespective of the fact it's a white-label product.

Since I'm down checked until I can get tested for CV, I amused myself for buying parts for a car that I don't have.

(It's somewhere in the world on a boat-- not sure how the CV outbreak will effect port deliveries and transport to CO from CA).

I ordered a bunch of sound deadening parts as well as the missing intake parts from the M3/4.

Nice. What do you plan on doing with ASD? Only reason I ask, is because all of that sound deadening will likely be useless if ASD is still on. There is no I would've been able to tell how much road noise the fender seals cut down on, had I left ASD on.

Nope you are 100% right, my mistake! BC is the parent company to signature. Brixton is its own company.

Great picture. I'm still bumming that the plant closing will delay the delivery of my car - same exterior spec. As yours. However, I am keeping things in perspective in regards to the crisis out there.

Enjoy your ride! No reason not to!!!

What is your full spec?

Did you get the silver or black wheels? I have encountered in certain lighting conditions, the black wheels seem to have a lot of contrast, actually popping like the silver.

They're Twins! I would have thought our spec would be very popular. HS certainly is, but I see a lot of people getting the dark rims instead of the bi-color. The DCT has its share of fans as well

These are the silver/bi-color wheels.

After failing to find anyone that could ship me a ready-to-put-on-car wheel and tire set that I was happy with, I put my 788's back on yesterday. I took a short drive to make sure all was well and I was again struck by how much heavier the steering is with the correctly-sized MPSS summers vs. the smaller Alpin tires. The car feels like itself again. Just in time for quarantine.

That is the correct P/N and I purchased this (and many other parts) from my local dealer, especially since they were so good to me in helping resolve the issues I had on my ED. $876.96.

Check with Brian at Sun Motors or the few dealer websites selling parts online.....you should get close.
