How are you finding the AA resonated mid-pipe? I backed off mine after fitting it and have gone back to stock midpipe with the Akra exhaust. Very happy with that final set up. I found with my AA there was a gas fumes smell when I pulled up (caused by removed cats?) and I was getting a deep booming too low in the RPM range. It may have been my fitment but I walked away and am very happy with the final outcome after returning to stock midpipe with the Akra exhaust. I found a new midpipe to refit so kept my original exhaust and midpipe intact so i can part back to stock if I ever want to part out the Akra exhaust.

I have not heard the stock mid pipe, single channel mid pipe or non-resonated EL mid pipe next to mine but I can say that this is the most aggressive I would have wanted to go. Ideally I would have this resonated EL mid pipe and the "sport" Remus rear section but got a great deal on an used race unit available so I went all the way. Love it so far!!

I'm assuming you're talking about the carbon fiber lid.

That's part of the Turner Motorsport intakes. It's the airbox lid.

The strut tower covers (all M2 CS come with those stock) are above the intake lids.

Small modification but IMO overall nice upgrade.

What a great car out of the box. This far close to 7K miles mixed in with other cars for daily duties. Only other "mods" clutch stop and BMS exhaust module. Have not had the need/itch to do anything more.

Check out the new release from Sparco. Carbon shell with red stitching to match the CS.

I can't wait to get them installed.

Looks so good! This is the one thing that I wish the CS came with. Buckets and a pull to slide seat.

I like the front. Not sure on the sides. Well played. Hope you're loving driving the car.

Here is a very simple job done.

You buy Recaro Pole Position and give it to the shop, which can do 100% match to OEM leather and alcantara (in fact they use OEM leather and alcantara).

Then you get brackets sold in Germany, which allow you to put Recaro seats to the base of your OEM electric seats so that the seat memory is working flawlessly.

The final result has exceeded my expectations I must say. Everything looks absolutely like the OEM package.


P.S. The only thing you have to be aware is the car is becoming a two-seater. I just realized it recently when a friend asked me to pick him and his girlfriend. No matter how close I pushed the seat to the front, there was not enough space to sneak in the rear.
Is it a good or a bad thing? In my case it turned out to be a good thing ))
