I haven't heard of any issues with Outcast, but I guess that yours was a mistake.

Also my car gets to go into a body repair shop since someone rear ended my car!!!!!!!!!

Send Alex an email with your order number. FG takes roughly 4 weeks and CF roughly 6 weeks. He's a stand up Guy amd returns emails fairly quickly but 12weeks sounds like a long time to be waiting. Tell him you spoke with Kenny and I informed you all of this. Also PM me your order number and I'll get in touch with him on your behalf as well.

Will be interested in hearing your experience with the rear diffuser and the IPL bumper. Are you lowered at all? I'm not sure it'd last five minutes on my car with the roads I have here in San Antonio.

Yea I'm lowered, I don't have the exact height off the ground but the pictures shows my approximate ride height. I'm a little concerned about it being low but ill make some adjustments to height if its too big of a problem. Right now I dont drive much living in Beaumont , TX and the roads aren't horrible when I do drive, so hopefully it will survive lol.

I finally installed my High Flow Cats. (Last week actually)

I used the ATF/Acetone mix. I soaked the demon bolts a few times real heavy and let it soak in for about an hour.

Using the right combination of 1/2 inch impact extensions and universal joint sockets and a breaker bar, I was able to free the bolts loose. Didn't even break a single one.

When the first demon bolt came free, I couldn't believe it. I thought maybe I had stripped the head or something.

The HFC sounds great and the exhaust screams at high RPMs.

Yeah, I've done a fair amount of high torque wrenching and never had a bolt snap like that when it broke free, though for sure that head was snapped, but no, it was all good.

Glad it worked out, would hate to start teh New Year having to use a cutting torch on your G

Looks like a nice job on the wrap AZNBoy, more pics when you can.

Did the windshield squeak mod to eliminate said squeak and installed Diode Dynamics tails as turns harness. Easiest mod ever.

I was having some start up lag but and did some reading on here. I thought it may have been one of the tsb about the BCM but it turns out my starter was going bad. I had it changed (expensive af btw) and it starts right up. Kind of sucks this was the one of the first expenses but I knew what i was getting into with a used G. Hopefully all the cash I throw at this car will give me peace of mind on the daily commute.
