hey guys, I appologize for not replying in some time. I will try and answer some of the questions. I do not have the canards on the car as of yet. Maybe in a few weeks I will decide. As far as the Side mirrors go I have them assembled I just have not have them installed. The only wear on the kit is of the paint chip in the wheel wells. It is almost daily that I am either complimented on the car or asked what make it is. I love the way the car looks and rides. I will be ordering the Racing Beat intake when it becomes available. Should be available in abot 2-3 weeks. Also a light weight flywheel and light weight pulleys. I just installed the RP supercat and it sounds sweet coupled with my RB catback exhaust. But I think the next mod will be the TEIN coilovers with the EDFC.

I have been out of the country on business so I have not had time to place the L.E.D side mirrors on my 8. I will do so in the next few days. I have to figure out the wiring becuase the directions I have are in Japanese. I can figure it out I am sure. Also I had to build a bracket for the front license plate becuase I received a ticket for not displaying front license plate.

List of mods so far:

-Canzoomer 1.1
-Vertex Lang body kit
-RB CatBack
-RB Revi Intake
-TSW Mondello 20" rims
-BFG G-Force KDW II tires
-XXX third brake light
-Custom grill and fog lights
- Espillar lowering springs
-L.E.D side mirrors(to be installed soon)
-Clear corners with silver bulbs
-Strakes

Mods to go:
-Tein Flex w/EDFC
-Light weight flywheel
-light weight pulleys
-braces for entire car(haven't decided which yet).

Hiya X-Sin.

Nice Job mate.

I have to say, for the first time, in those colours and with those nice wheels, the strakes look good! Normally i hate them! but they look great on your car.

PS I just installed Hymee short shifter gear lever. its awesome, and i highly reccommend it.

Thanks bro. I have recieved many compliments while out and about. I was looking at the Hymee short shifter but it seems to me that the shifter is not much shorter. By the side by side photos (stock to Hymee shifter) the difference is maybe a centimeter (if that). I am interested in knowing more of this shifter and your impressions. Does it make that much of a difference?

unbelievable diference

Best money you will spend for an instant change for the better

Shift is tight snappy and instant. It looks exactly the same when in, but the drive is finally how it should be.
