Congrats on your new steering wheel! Can't go wrong with Alcantara!

What's different with your exhaust tips? I seem to remember them looking like that before..

Looking forward to see your full carbon fiber interior. That will definitely top off your build!

Which lightweight brake rotors are you going with?
