ToXIc's 6MT A54 Sedan
It's been over four years.
I'm still waiting.Your roof wrap looks so clean in those pictures. Did you buy a KH3 shark fin cap for the project?
dang 4 years..
it came out great.. except for one spot on top middle.. nice a smooth otherwise
i did buy a KH3 sharkfin from ebay and just swapped them out.. get the one with the green plug.

How are you liking the art pipes? I'm waiting for mine to come in now along with my manifold.

The ART pipes are amazing. Now, we installed on my friends car and not my car but the cool thing was he has stock exhaust with just Stillen Gen3 intakes so the benefits of the ART pipes were more appreciable. Sound is dramatically improved and it even set off an alarm in a parking lot.

I can get you some dyno numbers on Wednesday. My car currently has Gen3 intakes and Wednesday we'll be installing the ART pipes along with FI exhaust.

. After the exhaust and art pipes, the car is going to be EcuTek tuned for E85!!
well the parts "todo" list is getting bigger

double D's on the left then the bushings for my droopy pumpkin and got in a gently used Z1 tranny mount. Also have the ole Roch 'happybuyitnow" roof spoiler that will go on this evening..

I see what you're saying about the roof wrap not sharing the same glossy, painted look as the roof wing. At the same time, I wouldn't say it looks bad at all. On the contrary, the low-profile spoiler looks great, IMO. But if you're seriously considering painting the roof KH3, that's not a bad idea.
Of course, you've got lots of things competing for attention in the lines of the car, what with that roof rack and all. And these two photos don't give you an appreciation for how the spoiler contributes to the whole car perspective.
Is your belt-line wrap gloss or matte? It looks almost matte in these pics. I would think you'd want a gloss wrap to match the little pillar in the back window.
