coming along quite nicely!... how do you like your D3? have you upgraded any other audio? (speakers, amp, etc..). i have a D3 as well, and have been entertaining the thought of upgrading my stock speakers...

Wow man, your coupe looks great! It's so clean.

I love the wheels. I'm starting to consider some coilovers for mine because the wheel gap in the front is a little bigger than the rear and it drives me nuts.

Wow, thats one clean engine compartment. And I like the engine cover with the red stripe. Isn't it normally black?
I also like the idea of the TEIN stickers on the battery cover (ie cabin air intake). I looked at those stickers, and no way was I putting them on the outside. But located next to the the suspension, not a bad place.
I would need an AMG & ASP stickers as well.

Yup. The stock gap is ridiculous.

Did you just wrap the stock trims with cf fabric? If yes, would you mind telling where you got the fabric?
thanks.

Man I have to say, every time I look at this car . . . I am just AMAZED on how clean it is kept Truly stunning, is it garaged most of the year or is it daily driven?

Thanks guys!

The trim is wrapped in cf cloth from Jo at EuroDyne. The pics show my first attempt so you can see some bumps around the edges. I've redone all the pieces so everything is perfect now.

The car is daily driven and I try my best to keep it clean... but if you want clean, Carlos is clean. hahaha

Nothing new planned for now. I need a new windsheild. I have a custom intake going in soon and then probably play around with some mesh in the lower grill. That's all for now.

Ohhhhhhh.....sweetness!!! Come to Daddy!!!!
Post some before and after sound clips please....

FYI- Cutting the exhaust pipe, you CAN do it yourself, but from my experience, the pipe is thick, it's stainless, and a recipricating saw won't do it. You need a diamond wheel. Or whatever it's called. Sh_t is hard to cat! Can't wait. Glad to see the M271 crowd getting some love from Kleeman!
I pulled the pipe off on mine cut, and put it back.

Be sure to take some pics before starting the car...it'll never look so beautiful again.

Why should you heat wrap the headers????
What are the benefits?
What do you use to heat wrap them?
Thanks

Because it makes the exhaust fumes and engine bay as a whole cooler. And on a forced induction car, heat is the enemy; it steals your power

You can use normal "heat wrap" or special "header wrap." Both are pretty much the same
