Really nice car Doug! I'm with Steve on my opinion of the wheels. They look good but I think the gunmetal will be better.

Thanks for the compliments guys....Jason and I have something cooked up on the wheels. Stay tuned!
I got the Roush Side/Rear Splitters installed and the MGW Shifter in....Ran outta time for the exhaust install.
Dropped in a K&N filter for now....but noticed that when I washed the car there was a little water in the engine bay form the vents, so not sure I want to go with an open box CAI.

here a shot of the engine bay as it sits now.....need to sell my CF Radiator COver for the 2012 so I can get one for the 2014!

Doug...I don't see much water from the hood vents unless I'm washing the car. I try not to spray water directly into the vents. I have a Roush CAI and there are no issues.

Yeah I didn't bother with a CAI because the OEM flows well as it is, and the water thing. You can get a covered one, or just get the foam piece that blocks off the front part of the vent.

Ah Oh!!! Todays To-Do list consisted of Claybar - EXP Sealant - Carnuba Wax
Then I put her up on blocks today and sold the wheels.....
Ordered the new ones w/in 10 min of the sale too!

Shortly after this pic was taken I pulled the front side marker lenses and coated them with VHT Nightshades & 3m rubbing compound to make them glossy.

You need to pick up the pace there Doug...Can't wait to see what you and Jayman came up with on the wheels.

Well we tried a lot of different options...and gave it our best shot. But I didnt want to wait for wheels, so I had to go a different route. But I think Im gonna be real happy!!
