BTW I just got my Fedex Notification!!!

Got mine. I was about to run out into the garage to install it until I remembered my car still looks like this, and is in Germany!

But everyone else, PLEASE post pics and instructions/observations of the installation process. TIA

The fedex guy barely caught me on the way to pick up the kids from daycare. Waiting another day would have crushed my soul. Can’t wait install this thing. Hopefully it
lives up to expectations.

I’m made some progress tonight. Tips so far: aerokit owners need to remove the wing. There are a few suitable locations to mount the unit. Alternator cover and back side of intercooler box are the most promising. I don’t see a way to mount it by the ECU like the instructions say, but that just my opinion. Car actually looks easier to work on than I thought it would. The driver side valve looks like you can disconnect from the top, passenger side looks like it’s a jack it up situation. We’ll see. alternator cover in second pic

Jokes on you. It’s well know that if you have more than 6” of space between a bike and your car you are wealthy. I’ve got 8”. That puts me in the top 1%

I’m just as guilty as anyone for keeping it alive. Quite a doozy that one was. On another note, someone posted a pic in another thread that showed a grill…in…the…garage…can you believe it? I mean, get a job pal.

You have to remove the wing!?! That sucks... was it difficult to remove?

No, it’s not hard at all. There are a couple of
trim pieces that pop right off, then two bolts. It’s a 5min procedure. It’s also very light and easy for one person to maneuver. The worst part is realizing you are holding a 5k part..which adds a bit of anxiety.
