I really dig the GIFs man, nice touch to show off the lights.
I've put Diode Dynamics in all interior lights, city lights, reverse lights and my license plate lights.
Any issues so far with the Tail as Turn mod? I wanted to pull the trigger and get a pair for my sedan, but wasn't sure if there would be an issue since Diode lists it for the coupe. The front and rear turn signals are no longer in sync now that you've used the Tail as Turn mod, correct?

No issues on the tail as turn.
It lists it for the coupe because they make it plug and play for the coupe. You have to get the DIY kit for the sedan. Which is actually a lot cheaper, and is not hard at all to install.
I put in a set of resistors into the back lights, and that solved any issues with hyperblinking or out of sync blinking.
Hope that answers it all

Did you know beforehand how well those powdercoated Cusco brackets would match your engine cover? Because that looks great. Even the blue cable grounding kit, and the painted back panels. Well done.
I know the VMS rad cap cover is blue, too. But something about it is mismatched and awkward. I think that cap cover would look better black. IIRC, they're pretty inexpensive.
The new tail-end perspective is a very clean look. Also well done. Whoever twisted your arm to do that is a freaking genius.

No wait, one more thing. Since you clearly have painting skills better than the average bear, how about painting those brackets for the airboxes and the open-hood sensor?

Very nice! So much better, right?
Now paint that dipstick ring with black plastic.

Winter slow season lol, crazy deadlines at work, and had to dump money into some other stuff besides the car QQ. I've been quietly stalking the forums, just not posting much. Did every fluid possible in the car, and had to drop $500 to fix he leak in the inner cv boot. They had to replace the axel...
