cazio's '08 CBP Progess Thread

just got to Bruce's (AckTL05) shop and about to start some serious mods. a quick list includes the type-s lip kit, replacing my a-spec spoiler with a type-s one and CF wrapping it, roof spoiler, smoking blinkers on mirrors, and a CAI install. I also purchased type-s mufflers and tips from a fellow aziner which will hopefully be installed over the weekend but if not it'll have to wait till next weekend due to my work schedule. keep checking in throughout the day for updates and pics while the work is going on if not as soon as we are done pics will be up. huge thanks again to Bruce and Dom for taking good care of me!!!

How are you smoking the turn signals in the mirrors? I'd like to see some close-ups if possible. I need to do this as soon as winter is over.

Lol true. Guess it couldn't hurt to update my thread then. Really I'm just too lazy to go out and take real non cell phone camera pics lol. Also it's good to know you can wrap the rear window spoiler, was considering doing my roof but didn't wanna buy another spoiler to match

yea I was gunna wrap my roof spoiler but I think having the roof CF, the roof spoiler body color, then the deck lid spoiler wrapped gives it a nice transition

to be honest I'm not 100% sure cause it was bundled in with a few other parts and the price included wrapping it in CF. what I can tell I was that it was a used one so if I had to guess u could prolly find one for around $250-$300 if your lucky or like $400-$500 from a dealer. lol sorry of that doesn't help u much and thanks for the kind words bud
