Gotcha - modding is a slippery slope

I just went for Cobb tune and Kline exhaust headers (through Sam at Bydesign) and its probably fast enough for me. I can barely use what i have now without getting super-arrested or being reckless. But i won't rule out something in the future.

Default Front Lip

The new front lip is on...I went a little Frankenstein here.

The front end needed a bit of extra drama to it to match the back end...but tastefully so...instead of going the route of a full RS front end replacement I saw and fell in love with the factory Aerokit Upgrade front lip.

but I didn’t like the whole kit, just the front lip...Suncoast recently made just the front lip available so instead of the front lip, sideskirts, and rear wing all the same factory AeroKit I have the Factory front lip upgrade, with the standard TTS rear wing, and the wider RS sideskirts from Suncoast.

car is Very Close to completion.

That demonstrates an incredible amount of patience - I cannot even imagine how hard, and what tiny little fingers are needed, to complete a job like that. Out of curiosity, does it have any power adders?

That will take a turbo upgrade. Which needs an IC upgrade.

@SamboTT@ByDesign is a great way to get what you want within a budget and safely.

yeah but that’s good work, with ‘purpose’ to it....improving the economic trajectory of your family for the next two or three generations. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
