Installed the ED1 front bumper pieces for now until Renntech builds my carbon kit. Also took off my exhaust tips, had someone weld a slanted split in the middle, then powder coated it black. (Last pic)
Truly amazing vehicle and mods.
I hope you will not mind having a twin sister down south in Florida because all the mods I was planning to perform down to the wheel colors, you are already doing.
Do you mind sending me a PM on cost of exhaust tips?

tips cost me $200 for welded part, $200 for powder coating, roughly $150 in labor... so around $550.00 total installed. took about 1.5weeks.
you either have to weld something on temporarily, or park the car as you cannot drive it while tips are off, the heat generated will melt all the plastic parts around the bumper

thanks Vic! I believe Velos calls it "translucent copper"...
Also, how was the install of the front edition 1 pieces? When I get my car, do I ask the dealer to install them or should I do it myself (I have access to a shop with a lift and the normal shop tools)?
Have your resolved your Renntech springs issues? care to expand on how the car feels versus stock?
Renntech coil overs are amazing. Fixed the factory stiffness right up, and the stance is perfect. I have zero complaints about them.

So yeah looking for feedback on the Renntech vs KW vs stock as well.
Install of the ED1 parts should take no longer than an hour, with a beer, and some music. Very easy! Definitely easier on a hoist. I'm more than capable of doing this stuff myself, but honestly just cannot seem to find the time.
Renntech sleeves are better than the KW in my opinion. We're talking about someone who never tracks their car, and rides at lowest setting all the time. Please keep that in consideration.
Both sleeves are better than OEM suspension for daily driving.

Ahi thanks man
You have made my mind up regarding the sleeves.
But I have to ask what's going on with name? Are you the Tuna King.
I have a GT63s and I'm looking to have my exhaust tips painted gloss black. Everyone tells me the heat with ruin black powder coat (like yours). How have your tips held up to the heat over time? Thanks...and looks awesome!
