Lovely pictures.

Ah, you're the one who let EAS dyno your car. Thanks for that. M2 Comp looks fantastic! Any power mods planned?

twintiga · 10-09-2018, 11:13 PM

Beautiful! Any issues with the key fob conversion? Did you get it from the forum member?

yah I got it from SeanWRT. No issues at all, lock / unlock / panic / trunk release / keyless entry / even the physical key all work properly.

I'm sure EAS will take car of that for you. Look forward to the remaining build. Very tasteful build so far.

How much was it for the total key conversion (hardware and coding)?

Total cost was $400. turnaround time is about 2 weeks as I had to ship the original key to China (he is based in Shanghai) for the swap.

The car looks awesome. What tinting level does it have?

Whoa, there's no one stateside that can do this?

Die ///M Rakete · 10-19-2018, 09:23 AM

Love it except for them IND Red M1 / M2 Buttons

CosmosMpower · 10-19-2018, 09:30 AM

How is the CF pattern compared to OEM M performance CF?

Ceramic Rabbit · 10-19-2018, 09:35 AM

Man I think LBB is the most beautiful color (I ordered mine in LBB as well) but the car just doesn't have the same stance or presence in blue as it does in black.

I'm sure there is, but Sean's work has been validated by many forum members, so I didn't bother to search for anyone local.

I think you are referring to the mirror cover? Honestly I couldn't tell any difference.
