Great job modding. Everything looks awesome. The only thing i'm not really feeling is the hood emblem. I would have gone with the RMM grill if I wanted to keep the "L" up front. Either way...Nice!

I can't wait to check it out in person. BTW, how did Tim respond when you talked to him about it sagging? I'm going there tomorrow to finally actually drop my car off.
He was pretty cool about it. He said he'll take care of it when I come back in for my hood latch release.

Yeah they used tape I think. I'm going to back and have them use some strong urethane and maybe even some black silicone.

If you paint the rotors I give it two thumbs up. Incredible detail job.

use stuff called Duramix...it will never come off. Made by 3m and available to any bodyshop. They should know what it is. How's the ride with 15mm spacers? Any issues? The car looks really good. I love a shiny shiny black car.
