Installed a fire extinguisher. This was using the OEM extinguisher kit. All parts are OEM; bracket, reinforcements, etc. I installed on my passenger seat. It is not drop in, not on my passenger seat anyway. The weight sensing box bracket interfered with the FE bracket. I was able to modify both slightly for a proper fit. The seat pan had the holes that aligned with the brackets - it just took several minutes to figure out exactly how things go together. Adds a cool look and also offers some level of safety. I hope it is used for looks only.



Brackets.

Starting disassembly.

Modified brackets for clearance.

Another shot.

Installation complete.

Done.

it's on Bilstein damptronics, sitting pretty low at 25.75F /26.75R fender to ground. And it already has a custom cobb map/tune but I'm having it checked and tweaked (if necessary) to accommodate for the additional airflow.

I finally got my custom steering wheel that I ordered from Techart several months ago and installed it. Yay, paddle shifters!

Dropped it off at indi shop to have the engine oil changed, front differential controller fluid changed, and PDK transmission fluid changed.



Some cool old memorabilia in the front office.

Installed GT2 side sills, love the more aggressive design & width. stockers were sand blasted.

The GT2 side sills are a very nice upgrade.

The GT2 side sills look great! What front lip are you using? It looks like it's the aero version and it fully matches the sills in color.

It is the Ikon Motorsports front lip from Amazon that a lot of guys are running. Has the more aggressive shape of the aero front lip and is cheap and replaceable. I will say the fitment was not great but with a little bit of trimming to downsize a few of the clips it went on nicely. with the terrible shape of the roads in Denver I couldn't justify the cost of the OE aero lip.

I would like to try NSXavier's front splitter with the OE front lip one day...

I have the Aerokit front lip and had my GT2 side sills color matched. I prefer them all the same color of the car. Not a fan of the black finish for my car.

GT2 side skirts and that Amazon lip completely transform the car in my opinion - it looks incomplete without it.

Though I wish someone would make a good quality version of this lip. Ikon one doesn’t fit perfectly…
