HI Tobeit....see pics below for the center lug covers. I did drop it modestly as I didn't want it to be too obvious, I must say that the ride quality didn't suffer from the upgrade, the car feels much more stable, planted and very responsive. As always, try to avoid any big bumps, pothole and so on but from what I heard that Techart HAS is actually a rebranded version of the KW HAS (I might be wrong) but overall super happy with the KW upgrade.
Thanks. That's slick. You probably paid a fortune? On HAS - I want to get rid of that huge wheel gap in front on standard suspension and maybe improve handling. I feel the car is very nervous at higher speeds going over small bumps or when having cross-winds. Is that your experience too? Coming from a AMG with lowered suspension that surprised me a little (never had that experience on my AMG).
Actually...didn't cost a lot. About $3k all in.
For the KW HAS, I am 100% with you on the gap which was driving me nuts every time I looked at it and that hobby feeling at high speed..all gone now with the KW springs.
If you don't mind sharing where you got it from PM me please. So you also experience the hobble...

Really slick set up. Do you mind sharing the offsets?
No they are not...custom wheels done by a shop overseas.
I wonder if they use the same shop. Augment offers the fake center lock option on their wheels too, which are made in China. Looks good! If I didn’t like my stock wheels so much, I’d do a turbo twist replica from them with the center lock.
I decided to grab the tune by M-Engineering and received both my 93 and E-85 tunes shortly after emailing the team. I’m picking up my 992 C2S at the shop tomorrow ( PPF & ceramic coating) and loading the 93 octane map. Looking forward to feeling the difference.

Is there a big difference between the 91 Octane tune and the 93??
I ask because I recall M-Engineering saying there was not an issue using 93 Octane on the 91 Map but wondering if you were forced to use 91 Octane on the 93 Map what would happen??
Yesterday I used rubbing alcohol to remove the stickers on the Visors. Took about 30 min for each one but I could not tolerate those stickers
Yesterday I bought a moving blanket to protect the rear seats from "cargo" thanks to Detansinn's suggestion. Also bought a small roll of matte black wrap to cover the rear red reflectors. I already have the SmartTop, RGS radiator grills, AWE foilers, windshield repair kit, wireless charging pad, cupholder, Leather International cleaning and conditioning kit and Carpro Reset, Elixir, Reload and drying towel. Now all I need is the car!

Glad I'm not the only one buying stuff for a car that I don't own. That hasn't been built. And that hasn't locked. Guess that's the true definition of Enthusiast!

^ There is definitely a difference between 91 and 93 octane with the M Engineering tune. Check out their website and come join M Engineering's thread on this tune where there has been an ongoing discussion about it.
We also have datalog runs. I have 93 octane stage 2 and my boost PSI hits 25. Another forumer with 91 octane hits a max boost PSI of 20.
Also, if you use 91 octane gas while running a 93 octane map, you could damage your engine, so I would highly recommend against that.

Thx for the insight on Augment. Turns out they’re in Toronto so I’ll give them a shout tomorrow - rare we can purchase local in Canada!
