New spoiler is on!
I like the look of this one a LOT...HIC is great, but this one is a little more understated and I love the color match.

nice, i have one very similar and i think this style/height/design is the best looking one (which is why i have it on my car)! i think another benefit is that it matches the oem trunk spoiler very well.

So much downforce in those pictures.

I like the second version. Because it is much more racecar.

At least it matches perfectly and you didn't have to go local and get it done.

It's not, the heat...the v1's would just sink in the middle...the v2 twisted up and one side lifted. It probably won't be a problem for most people, I was the first they heard about it from.

I like this one much better. It adds a little flare and goes well with the trunk spoiler and window visors.

I DO like this one much better than the last, just the right amount of aggressiveness. Not too understated and not too wild either!

Between that, the videos of him hooning around the neighborhood, and the pictures of blatant trespassing, I'm starting to thing J isn't a "model citizen".

I was missing the egr channel, so I went in the attic and got it from the 3.5 IM Justin had given me. I guess he forgot to swap it over.

Okay, valve adjustment done...just need to do gaskets and clean everything up and put it back together. I am not planning to paint them, since I've been told the paint won't adhere for long and it's WAY in there. So I'll just degrease and brush off.

Rear head was MUCH cleaner than the front, not sure if it's because the valve tolerances were closer to range...all intakes were loose, front exhausts were too tight, and rear right was a little tight...just ironic that those back two (1,2) were so clean!.

u mean painting valve covers? For that, id recommend powder coat. paint will just end up flaking off, but I'm sure your aware of that

I think Ivo is having flaking issues with powder coat.
Naw, I'm not THAT crazy about the bay being perfect. Oh well.
