I finally got around to installing the Salter Aero uprights that I bought during their black friday sale months ago..... Overall I love them. There are 1 or 2 angles where they look a little bit awkward but they look way better from most angles than the OEM wing uprights did. They also look much better in person than in photos. Because the wing now sticks up so much higher it has the unexpected effect of making the car look much lower to the ground, more low slung. Looks very aggressive and edgy. I LOVE IT! Quality (as expected and as others have said) is top notch. These things are a masterpiece of craftsmanship. Installation was very straight forward and took me probably 3 hours working alone. 50% of that time was removing the old adhesive left by the stock base covers.
When I got my GT4 the only option it didn't have was the black wheels. I decided to have my Platinum Wheels refinished in Satin Black. I love how they came out and looks soooo much better IMO.
Took a drive for the first time in months and tried the Arden Valley Rd., not far from Bear Mountain (NYS).
I must say it was one of the, if not THE best driving roads I've ever driven. It's filled with blind crests, hairpin turns, elevation changes, blind corners and everything. Only problem is the speed limit is 25 mph, but one need go only 60 to feel like you're flying. I did it three times and will definitely return.
Another unfortunate challenge is wildlife and I'm pretty sure the chipmunk population there is one lighter today than yesterday.

I have to agree, Arden Valley Rd is awesome, i only wish it was at least 50 miles long. The next time you’re near Bear Mountain / Harriman take a quick ride up to Storm King Highway.

Totally agree on Storm King Hwy--I love it. Didn't have time yesterday, unfortunately.
I was on AV Rd in the mid afternoon yesterday, which I would not have expected to be a good time, but it was just fine. Almost no traffic, except a few hikers on the side of the road.
Those two roads--AV and SKH--are truly amazing driving roads. What like most about both is going just 60 mph feels like you're flying much faster.
Just back from Road America with PCA Chicago. I lost count of the number of GT4s there. These are not all of them. I know I missed a few. 5 in my run group alone!
