You can get them as one priece also, you can see them being installed here

Where did you source those horizontal carbon intakes?
Looks great.

Not today but DIY'd the M Performance spoiler last weekend. Learned the hard way what not to do with the scotch wheel, but the yellow marks were minimal.

Say more… Is the adhesive wheel a bad idea? I used it on the rear emblem without issue, but that’s a much smaller surface area.

What am I missing here?

Toffee or caramel wheel worked great on my spoiler removal - no issues.

Excellent question. Maybe this will help...?

I think I learned two things.

1) When the wheel is brand new, it might need to be broken in. I felt like the surface was more prone to “bleeding” than the underlying material.

2) Confirmed this in other posts but going slow is key. At the outset, I was too aggressive with the drill.

Hope this helps.

Also need to keep checking the temp of the wheel when using it. If it is too hot to touch with your bare skin, it's getting too hot for the surface.

Best decision I’ve ever made.

I do not know how you did it but the three picture sequence was brilliant.

Time to replace the brake pads. Going to iSweeps was the best thing I've done to the car.

I know it, just hard coming to grips with dropping $600 replacing basically brand new OEM pads.

I think I am going to stick out the first set then replace with something less dusty when I replace them.

I'm sure there are free apps out there for making animated GIFs, but I used Photoshop - https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/...ake-a-gif.html

Switched from 15mm spacers to 20s all around. Maybe it’s just me but besides thinking the car looks better it also feels more planted on the road specially when cornering.

Square 20's will always look better.

Soon enough I’ll get to the real square 20’s
