I'll just send you my interior pieces, some cash, and a return ship label. Box up those interior pieces and send them my way.

Man, your project is amazing. I must say your carbon work is absolutely brilliant. I wish I had those skills, as I'd love to make several parts out of carbon for this car. Keep up the good work.

With those eibach springs that you installed, did you notice the ride was quite a bit stiffer? Roughly how much did it drop the car?

Thanks Its not that really hard to cover with CF - just takes some time to learn and lots of patience Check for How-to on Youtube - and you will see that its doible even for averange person...

As for the Eibach - to be honest - i was expecting ride to be worse, but theres not much difference with 18's and stock suspension... Its a bit harder - but really not that much. As for the drop - after few days it sits now for round 1.75'' all around i would say.

Wow! Looks great so far!

I love what you did to those headlights, very unique. And like the carbon fiber interior. What else are you gonna wrap?
