I am getting Eibach installed as we speak! plus I ordered the DSC controller so I expect the ride quality to be great! cheers!

My wheels are the same as Gixxerboys, except his are 21" and mind are 20". He has a drop, and I do not. I'll get a drop at some point with Techart. I'll be adding DSC next and may do the drop at the same time. TPC is about 50 minutes from my house, so I'll have them do the work.

The picture in your signature gives a little bit of an optical illusion, thanks for the specs!

Yes, its on stock suspension. Gixxerboy63 also has GT3 RS Side Skirts, while mine are standard gloss black. I'll look to swap out to the GT3RS Gloss Black

we are doing the wing so that the insides that you can only see when the spoiler is raised are bright red.

That looks very good indeed - they are sure taking their time, hope it is worth it!

we had to make some compromises to get the exact color I wanted.

the wrap has a lot of depth of color and light to it, and it’s about two or three times as thick as a normal wrap so it will self heal from rock chips and protect the paint as well as PPF....but

The adhesive isn’t really up to holding that thick of a film down on the edges...so they are having to go slow and meticulous and put extra adhesive in key places...

im dying to get back My Precious but would rather it be there an extra couple days and be done right than get it back faster but then have to take it back later to fix a few lifted edges

in person it looks really really good so far

Absolutely; so close to the end with an identified adhesion problem, I would do the same. How many mils is this wrap over a standard wrap?
