Nice job! how was the install like? did it require lots of self tappers/rivets or mainly oem points?

Thank you! Install was pretty easy and instructions straight forward. The lip lined up to the OEM points only. The side skirts had 4 or 5 bolts that lined up to OEM points and also came with double sided tape and 10 self tappers for each side.

Custom shifter from IND. I had the same one in my F87. Much better feel IMO.

I like the Swan neck but I lovee the Alpha N flow through! I think it gives the G87 a cool E36 vibe and seeing it on some people’s builds is what made me fall in love with the G87.
The front splitter is definitely secure; I’ve done a few triple digit runs on the highway since it was installed and no issues so far 🚀. |

Took it back out to COTA for a wet track weekend... Wound up with only 2 dry session, but still got some fun video chasing things. Still adjusting to driving a car without aero
It's a long one |

Love your choice of ADRO splitter and rear CT carbon spoiler. but also wondering also if the splitter winglets make it a pain to wash in between to the bumper post more pics when you get the chance! |

The winglets are 100% a pain LOL. It’s a tight space on both the side skirts and the splitter. The whole car is PPF/ceramic coated and the big red sponge I use for rinseless washing does not fit in those gaps so I need to use a small microfiber rag to wash those areas. Side note: I had the Vorsteiner diffuser and SST valve controller installed today. Planning on doing the mid pipe in a couple months and then some VT Forged wheels.

Installed a new brace to give me a bit more exhaust clearance with the ER mid pipe and also installed the Alpha N front lip/splitter. I hesitate to call it a splitter, because it certainly doesn't feel rigid enough to be as effective as a real splitter like the Verus. It certainly looks good though (pardon the dirty car).
I'm lowered on MP springs with it set as low as it will go. Clearance at the lip is just a tad over 4". So there's not a lot of clearance for dips, etc. Going to have to be very careful. |

I sold my RS3, put my E46 M3 under cover in storage, and bought a Toronto Red 6-speed with the carbon pack. I haven't daily driven a RWD car in the snow since I was in highschool with an E36 but here we are... wish me luck

Finally getting the ball rolling on the DINAN exhaust that has been sitting around here for over a month.
Step 1: black out the muffler |
