They've really come a long way in the carbon fiber vinyl game. It almost looks real.

So I still have to make a few adjustments to the diffuser right now, but I had to get it on there so the exhaust could go on. Needs to to "toight like a toiger" a little bit more (there are some really obnoxious clips that are very difficult to get to to do so) but once I get that situated some good pics will come.

Summary of parts so far:
RW Carbon CF grille, mirror add ons, DTM spoiler, roof spoiler
AMG big fin replica CF diffuser (unknown brand)
USR smoked side markers w/ chrome amber bulbs
Niche Targa 19x8.5 +42F 19x9.5 +52R
Toyo Proxes4 Plus 235/35(ish? I forget) 265/30(same ish lol)
H&R sport springs (-1.25in)
Meisterschaft GT exhaust with SR midpipes

You don't mess around, do you? That's quite a set of upgrades in a short time. Car's really coming together!

Thanks. Idk why I just haven't had the patience to wait around to mod this car. Pretty much the last thing I'll be doing for awhile is a CF front lip, but I'm having trouble finding one I like.

That was kind of the goal, since 2 inch bigger wheels where going on I knew it'd look silly if I didn't lower it a bit.

No it did. It would have been sitting much higher had I not put them on.

Oh, gotcha...well, the angle of your teasers make the gap look big, I'm sure with a proper level and distance shot it'd look just great.

Right it isn't low by any means. It's a perfect height for a car I drive daily. Don't have to worry about scraping and whatnot.

One is kind of my thing though.



Also I am going to have to get resonators. It is far too loud, and has a pretty good rasp higher up in the revs.

Any size/brand resonators y'all recommend? Never bought any so not sure how big/what style to go with. Thanks!

Thanks! Not really. I stopped off this past Friday, but I don't have time to get over there usually. Probably stopped in once a month.

I heard the drone killer is vibrant brand resonators. A long magnaflow (24" or 18") might do the trick too though...

I don't know that you'll kill rasp though, I felt like rasp was reduced drastically with upstream high flow cat and wrapping the exhaust with header wrap.

Labor intensive but might be worth it.
