its been painted carbon steel grey (from Porsche / VW), looks little different. i mainly post stuff on IG now (not that often though). performance wise I'm done, will be concentrating on suspension setup and getting more time at the track. hopefully can post cool vids of that. car was making +350 to wheel with kleeman cams, i went with w209 amg cams that are supposed to help, maybe another 10-15 on top of that. see old dyno plot, i know you were interested
