I've got pics of it all I'll post later. Also a mini-review of the gears so far. I'm off to an orthodontist appt.
Congrats Leo, I bet it will feel like a totally different car

Outstanding Leo, can't wait to hear how the SOP feels with the new 4.10's.

What defines a heat cycle if I may ask?

Look out Bill, Leo is about to start kicking A$$ and stake names.....................

I thought it was 10-15 minute drive with 30min-1hr cool down.

Gear install-

Painted chin spoiler- Let me know what you guys think. Liked it better before or now? I love the way it looks now and can't believe I didn't do it sooner.

SHR-rear medallion (still needs to be installed and have the pony added.) Looks 100000000 times better in person.

Gear review postponed till tomorrow. So far no regrets going 4.10.

Glad you like the gears...... when I was NA occasionally I wished I woulda went with 4.30s but I think 4.10s are perfect for these 3v engines.

Chin looks awesome; love this one:

Yeah, I guess it wouldn't take as long to cool down the rear end. I guess as long as you get it hot (from normal driving) and let it cool down to ambient temperature.

Guess it's more funnier to the ones that spoke to or know Charlie.
Jed should get a kick out of it.

Nice pics Leo!

CDC Spoiler came out great. I like it better painted.

Video tomorrow? Hey, we have to keep out cars clean for Sunset. (sounds tempting though! )

I like the painted chin spoiler. I think it really works well on a black car. Now that I look at the before/after, the unpainted version looks like you haven't finished it. Looks great though.

The SHR rear badge is going to look awesome. With the pony it looks so much better. It would be too plain with nothing on there.

If you don't want to void the warranty leave it as is. Everyone here's pretty much decided f the warranty if the dealer wants to be picky.

With that said I've taken my car in several times and they fixed the problem without hassling me.

I guess you could do a cosmetic mod.

Thanks. Cars clean? My car just got rained on during the trip up to LA. Where's your sense of adventure?

Thanks. I agree too plain without the pony. I was considering a GT emblem but it won't fit and I don't what to use the 99-04 GT badge.

Well I guess more of a drizzle. Still more moisture than I would like on the car.

I know I know I really wanted a GT back there but it's just not possible. To bad SHR doesn't have the rights to engrave the current gt logo onto the medallion.
