Got my "JDM" underpanel from JDKane's group buy, here from stock to aftermarket sorta... The install was pretty straight forward and everything line up because it OEM. Just pulling out the little rubber things to an extra time, but it was made easier with panel popper and pliers

Before



After




It even has this extra plastic thing riveted on the underpanel, I am assuming they thought it would be a high wear area...

Love what you're doing to your car man. Can't wait to see your intercooled s/c setup. I'm still using the 5AD wing you sold me.

Thank you, I am glad you are enjoying the spoiler still. I am still enjoying my Carsmo Spoiler and break up the lines a little bit, at least to me. I am still waiting to install my supercharger but I haven't been able to arrange a schedule with my tuner my schedule.

Installed Innovate supercharger and some other things

So far the car has been running great, it has been over two months since I had the supercharger installed. The car accelaration has been greatly improve and my tractiong light would come on during hard exit out of corners. The power is very linear, with great mid range power, and I found the top of the RPM is a bit lacking. The power is on tap and has been very usable. I notice with Innovate Supercharger the car MPG has suffer, I used to get 31 MPG on the readout, and not I get around on average about 28 MPG for reference for people. I drive the car daily on street mostly in traffic. I am still waiting to get the car on track and hoping to get a better time.
