I plasti dipped the center portion of my C-West front lip matte black to match the moustache; to make it less reflective. It's a subtle change, but when the center portion blends in with the front grill, it looks a bit more aggressive.

Haha, well after waiting since pre-ordering in September, I figured I could wait a few weeks longer.

I had pre-ordered the car September 12. The first one delivered on November 3. Dealer drilled holes immediately in the bumper despite being told at the time of pre-order not to, so another one was ordered. Salesman told me their internal policy changed after that. Now every 'sports' car that delivers on their lot is not automatically drilled into.

went through similar wait on my first car... ordered in July, car finally arrived in Oct. The 2nd time around though was much easier, went to the local dealership and they had the car waiting already!

Clear bra is now on... though with rain coming the next few days, I think I will let it dry/cure in the garage a little bit longer...

Got these in today, 17x9 +35. Just have to wait 2 more months for spring to put them on. Thanks to Anthony at Oakos, very easy to deal with and had them at my door in 2 days.

They look great in person. Amazing how light they are, weighed them here at 15.7lbs. It is going to be a long 2 months till I get them on.

I've yet to actually weight any of my wheels when I get them. I wish I had weighed the RPF1s on my GTI, they're supposed to be under 10lbs a piece, haha.

Do you like it better? I thought the last lip you had on fit the car absolutely perfectly..
