been thinking about powder coating these wheels to maybe platinum satin look or maybe even platinum satin but leave outer barrel silver. Just not sure-- afraid agate grey with platinum would be too monotone.
Man, that ride height is so much better than stock. I really want to do the same but it's so much labour. Looks great!

Carbon Fiber Illuminated Door Sills
Lloyd Ultimat and Rear Mats
Premium Indoor Car Cover
Alcantara Sun Visors
Clear Tail lights

With the recommendation of those here I also purchased the:
Ultimate Cup holders
Skene No drill front license plate holder
T-Design iPhone mount

Last purchase, and most excited about, customized hood emblem in black/agate grey/racing yellow.

I was very busy this weekend. Needless to say I'm a bit of an impulsive shopper and I don't need to introduce myself to Ryan at Suncoast.
Hey, is this the same PashaJ that commented over on my YT channel? If so just want to say HI!

Question - you have a TT S, with Center Locks right? Curious why you needed to purchase a center cap removal tool as that should be included in the CL removal tools in the frunk. Was that missing?

SHow us some pics of the car!

It is I!
I did say I'm a bit of an impulsive buyer. J/k. To be honest, I didn't look. I assumed if I have to pay for a rear wiper as an option on the car, then I will probably lack the tools to do it. Plus it was $11, figured why not.

I'll upload pictures this week hopefully.

Thanks! I almost traded the car for a GT3 a few weeks back and decided keeping it and doing a few enhancements was a better fit for me.

To my eye, the ride height is somewhat similar to GT3 ride height. No scraping issues and rides close to stock.

Labor was about 1k including full alignment and my shop kept the car overnight to let it settle before the alignment. From my understanding, the labor was a bit higher due to it being a 4S.

Right- On the AWD cars to remove the front spring assy the final drive has to be disengaged so that you can drop the wheel carrier. Not for the novice to do, but certainly do-able!

The new 4s is not covered under the road hazard as they are over the allowed amount per tire for coverage. The MPSS were just under the allowed amount so all 4 are covered. Otherwise I would have gone with the 4s

Purchased the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S and went with the 305 on the rear instead of the 295. Still surprised that even the 305 did not fill the wheel well like my OEM P-Zeros, even with the 5mm spacers. So decided to go with the 15mm spacer on the rear and very happy with the results.

By the way, for those who may want to know, I got an email from Suncoast that the frunk liner is currently out of stock and they should get it back on 4/18.
