nice I’ll have to check them out. You think they do calipers too? Is it best to powder coat?

I've done both for wheels. I like paint better. It's easier to repair when you scuff it.

Calipers - it depends. If you are tracking the car, paint. If you are street driving, paint or powdercoat works. Powdercoat on calipers at the trank has been known to melt. Plenty of pics of this if you search for it on the web.

Photos look amazing. How is the Exart axleback? Any drone with the valves open?

No droning at all with just axel back.

I’m thinking of getting the same axleback exhaust for mine. Does it make much difference to the sound? Tone or volume or both? Would you recommend it?

I love the sound of the exhaust, very subtle and not obnoxious. Check out the video from Exart website. https://www.exart.jp/ea01-lx109/

Are you located in Australia? You will need to find a Distributor as they won't sell to anyone outside of Japan. I had to have a friend buy in Japan and ship to me in US.

Thanks for the feedback. I managed to source one and install it. Sounds amazing. Haven't heard Novel in the flesh but it sounds Novel-esque.
