This wasn't today, it was this past Friday, but here you see my new window tint and lowered look with Steeda Sport springs/shocks. (Pardon me if you're seeing this twice, as I think I posted it in the suspension section as well.)

That's awesome. Glad you're enjoying yours as well.

Yeah it's done right. I'll never understand the thinking behind the way this shop manager handled this situation. It took them three shots to get it right. They only got it right after I *****ed them out and then because they took on the job like it was supposed to be.

That's understandable... it's always (first option) to be respectful and courteous, but stern. If things go awry after that due to vendor/shop not meeting expectations, then it's time to go to the "next level" of personality. lol

With the Revelare Designs cowl hood everyone was afraid to cut into the hood to fit the Aerocatch flush mount pins. One place agreed to do it, but quoted between $400 and $1,000 just to install the pins. So I opted to go with the more traditional pin. But this is a black pin with a black plate and screws; once I can find a black pin I will swap that too. At 75 MPH I was getting a LOT of hood shake and was concerned that the hood would not stay latched.

It turned out better than expected. I really wanted the Aerocatch, but all the shops were afraid they would stretch the paint and would have to then repaint the hood - or worse, that they would slip just a little and have a major repair to do on what they called a rare hood. I had it up to 90+ doing some data logging and it is much more stable now.

Also got the Koni yellow shocks and struts installed. Car rides better now, and I just need to play with the adjustment a little to find the "right" daily driver setting. If MPT can get the data log read and update the tune in time, maybe I can finally try the turbo at the track this weekend.

Looks good dude. However the amount of swirls on your hood not so much. You need to clay it, do a light buff and put on a coat of wax.

Keep on the road my friend.
Mine wil be getting some milage next month when I trek to PA and NJ

Thank you very much. Kona ftw. It truly is the reason why I got a 12, the last year they made it.
