That's what's so cool about these cars that we can use so many parts from different Model Years and they just bolt on.

Great looking car. Love the ducktail. What color is the script on the side? Is it metalic? I am thinking about something similar.

Hi Patrick.

Cmat & e9stibi,
I haven't changed out to the Recaros because the car is a daily driver and I need the storage area in the back seat. And, at least for me, the stock seat is probably the most comfortable car seat I have ever sat in my life.

The script is silver....in certain light, it blends into the car...pretty cool...but I thought it was a bit much and took it off.

Axl, Say it's not so. I loved the way your cars looks especially with LM and Silver Script

I have to agree with everyone here, the ducktail looks freakin' great. I wonder how imbalanced my car would be if I left the GT2 splitters on the front and put a ducktail on the rear. Your car also looks pretty sharp with the black wheels.....hmmm.

that car looks great, starting to think about a ducktail myself. I heard someone around here had one on an arena red? (ive seen it just giving an excuse to post!)

Is that at the NW corner of Park & Tollway where the Target is? I can be there but probably have to leave a bit early.

I did. I bought the wheels used. The offset is a bit wide for the rear 48 vs 65. So I have to roll the rear fender to make it work. It's not the best wheel for the car but it works well for a daily.

Cars & Coffee is at the BMW dealer on the NE corner of Spring Creek and the Tollway. 100+ cars of all types, but there is plenty of space.

I am still trying to decide if I am going - stuff is going on at home.

Trying to work things out. If you are bringing the kids, that means that you are not bringing the CGT? Are you bringing the TT?

I will email y'all this afternoon.
