Bumper fitting and I got the the splitter kit, it looks amazing. I made a mistake on the rear diffuser so it will be sent later and will upload pics when I get it.

Thanks to Artwork Bodyshop (fast and great work, really impressed)

Need some help if you can

I am getting all my lights done by wisedetailz and he needs some measurements from me but my car is getting painted right now and don't have access to it. Any chance anyone can do 3 measurements for me as we have the same car

the 3 measurements I need are

-Headlight to front side marker

-Front side marker to rear side marker

-Rear side marker to tail light

Aren't you from the Quebec TL group?

I wished you'd avoid Wized. There's A LOT of people who are dissatisfied with his product. And I don't know why he would need measurements when he works with TL parts all the time---he used to be a member in this community until a whole scandal broke out.

But if you absolutely must go with him... just beware of him and the product you may receive.

Never knew about him, but it's too late so fingers crossed

Nah, not from the Quebec boards, I should have done more DD. I am hoping I get lucky so fingers crossed. Thanks for the info though, appreciate it.

I made the order last week so I will just have to live with it and just making sure it goes as smooth as possible.

Any chance you can do those measurements for me? If you could, would really appreciate it

Thanks again for the info, I could kick myself right now

Is no one gonna talk about....... did you program and mill your own closed deck? Or is it semi-closed, with coolant holes? That's fuking awesome!!
Also I was hesitant about your choice of blue to white, but that picture on the trailer..... HOT DAMN!!

Dang man! I love your build! Few people get anywhere near this level. I’m rooting for you!

What is your solution for exhaust piping going to the turbo and the downpipe?

Looking forward to seeing the look of the splitter on the front bumper.

What are your power goals? Those 650cc injectors will give you sub 450whp numbers.

I may have missed it, but do you yet have a fuel system?
