| Just had quite a bit done done done to my jealous mistress. This is a collision of months of parts gathering and loading of the cash cannon to get to this. While not perfect or finished this last round has absolutely blown me away with satisfaction. on to the pics: 1st off, any one who has done this mod can attest it's VERY difficult to get the right lighting advantage to actually showcase these parts, especially on the darker paint codes.
The raw product were exactly what I expected and was able to get it to my body guy about a week later for a 4day turn around.
fit and finish are now top notch!I have Stillen Side skirts, although I don't think I'm in a hurry as these seem to fill and add contrast to the body lines that I want to enjoy for a while. I no longer have to see that pinch weld/abortion!
Painted to match the cowls and side mirror corners.
 This next part is an example of the attention to detail that my mechanic/custom dude posesses. George did an amazing job with this install. His work definately comes from a sence of ownership. I don't consider myself to be a tough costomer although he may argue that. I want to point out that during the middle of the installation I watched Vinny Ten's video.........I agree with all of it, and it was a bitter pill when I realized on a few points that "I was that guy" Thats OK Vinny, "perfect" customers only require one thing....... Disclaimer........All these pics are with a cell camera, I oppologise in advance, I'm not the shutter bug. Although I wish it was, this is not my DD. I discovered Tracking the car at Z-CON in Nashville and have been addicted since. With that said, I try to walk the line between "mod for a purpose" and asthetics as I prep the car for Barber in a few weeks. My goal on this next part was to clean up the cabin and add more Engine observational signals without the cabin looking like the space shuttle. I've spent 3 years scratching my head and this is what I came up with. 1st off is the GRC, I use these to simply display Left and Right Wide Band AFRs, They will display 3 inputs each for those that want to utilize more of their functionality. I'm VERY happy with the product, the future customization of the start up celebration and interfaces are limitless. Patrick made himself available all the way through the install and the last minute update of the firmware. I'm so happy to no longer have to see two dead guages in my cluster.
 This is a pic during the install, it has been cleaned up, but I thought it would be important to include. The 2 red buttons are the remotes for the periodic settings/resettings of the left/right Innovate WBs the round disc is the remote for the GRC and all its functions.
 This is the latest offering from HKS and is both very simple in its basic funtionality and VERY sophisticated in terms of what all it will do. I don't want to high-jack the post with that list, but this is the only rival with the Blitz. Behind the EVC is additional cabling and a USB for further customisation of the GRC at a later date.
Here we have the latest version of guage offerings from SPA Technique, This allowed me to fit the important stuff ALL IN The Din. A total of 6 different outputs all user defined and complete with individual microprocessors, Again Lots to discuss but I'm just trying to highlight the install here. will discuss later. The center is oil pressure over oil temp....flashing red because it doesn't like its current presure readings.
Here are the remotes for the user-defined settings of these guages mounted left to right and a fuel map switch so I can more conveniently take advantage of Mr. Dupree's Q16 tune.
 Difficult to get a great pic, but this is what I came up with, Not cluttered but not "All business" either. I have more input space available in the GRC and no-nonsence data fram the guages so I can cruise or confidently spend a day at the track
Gotta....Have....More.....Boost!!!!!!
