Very nice!

and the only reason you have one oil cooler is because your 8 is an auto

I tend to notice things like that I doubt they removed the other cooler or the drivers side one would not work because the run in series. Is your car from the US?



Edit: I think her car is a GT Six Speed. If it is an auto then I was actually being sarcastic when I pointed it out in the other thread but then she freaked out so I figured she has a six speed but who knows.

Car looks great!

Good choice on the Shine bumper. They have great pieces and it seems like fitment was spot on.

If only you knew how I drive you'd never ask me to lower my car... haha. I've seem to have had the worst luck with curbs 2X in the last 2 months.
