I had them precut locally and cost just under $400CDN and saved about 20lbs.

It wasn't entirely for the weight savings though. It's way too much effort to fix glass in place when the doors are completely gutted.

Well replaced the worn plates in my cam adjusters with stage 1 plates from 63Motorsports.
I did the Tasos pin flip a few ago just after I bought the car and until recently was quiet.
Then a few months back it started making the loud clacking sound as you started the car.
The wear on the 2 inlet plates was even worse than when I did the pin flip.
Wear on the exhaust was just starting to show.
First start up with the new plates and no funny noises from engine just the usual exhaust bark before settling into a nice smooth idle.
Got to run the plates in, in comfort mode only for next 1500klm then I can unleash and see how it feels.

Timing set up on R bank

Just about to fix second timing set on L bank

worn plates

Left inlet

Right inlet

Left exhaust

Right exhaust

Compliment graciously accepted.
Considering I have to work on my car outside in one of my building spare car spots as my garage is too small to work inside.
Same spot as where this photo was taken.

Yes had both complaints, could barely stand straight up.
After treating my wife and myself to dinner out I came home did lots of back and leg relieving exercises.

Man, the carbon front lips for the PFL models look so much better. I've been looking to get one for my FL sedan, but to me they all look very tacked on.

Plastidip. But most of the grill is cut out for max airflow to the coolers. Older pic with the previous hood vents.
