The black insert looks so much nicer in person. I will be keeping mine in for sure.

How did the parchment interior look with the IUP? I noticed that's what the car had, from the video. That's what I ordered, and want to see what it looks like. Did you guys get any interior pics?
It looked phenomenal with the parchment and the IUP. Much better than I thought. The IUP really makes the interior IMO.

Thanks Dan. Good to hear. I was a little worried to order it without seeing any good pictures of it. But I thought it would look great with redfire. The red interior was too much red for me, matched with redfire.

This was an amazing experience...

too bad Brad is on vacation

One thing that can't be seen in pictures,

the front end/grille is very deep and textured... it looks fantastic.

Another thing...

the machined 17's look so much better in person... I will be getting them on mine.

I stuck my arm in behind the rear wheels, there was about 14" between the wheel lip and the inner fender. Subtract about 2" for clearance and you can fit some nice rubber back there.

I agree with steve 100% on the above two comments. The grille and front end shape, depth etc. is completely lost in pics.

Comment on the grille insert,

it was put there to force more air through the radiator, so if you live in a hot area, I really think it should be left in.

For the Exhaust,

While the exhaust sounds amazing when you punch it, it is still a little quiet when driving around... I will definitely go aftermarket soon after I buy the car.

Thanks Dan & Steve that was GREAT!

I thought that I was lucky to be able to talk with Mike Williams when the 05 was at Foxboro, MA, but you guys managed to one up Dustin & me in a big way, getting to talk to HTT. :worship:

And to think you guys were whining for months that you couldn't see the '05 in Canada. I bet you're both thinking now that it was worth the wait.
