I'm torn, some angles I like the bella and other angles it seems weird to me. Maybe it is the way the side edges curve downward/are rounded? I'm not sure. Regardless it is still nice duckbill imo!

Maybe the CF trunk could work if you paint the back half and leave the top CF? Not sure how that would look though, just a thought.

 

thanks for the kind words John and thanks for the support fellas!

You're either gonna like this thing or not but we don't have very many options as you all well know for our sedans so this trunk does help give our sedans a different look, like it or not LOL it is available in Fiberglass as well.

Brad I do somewhat like the CF look but I was thinking of painting it and leaving CF accents on it. I think that would make it look much better but other than that it does flow well with the Blueslate unlike that White Sedan that's sporting it.

Tony, you have to see it in person. Pictures does it no justice. So speed on over here. I expect you here in about 30 min with that rocket ship of yours

Hope this pic helps

 

This. It could actually work well together. In for a penny, in for a pound, right?

And this. The Fat Sac gets it.

 

Sorry but the sticker stays a little longer. It was given to me by a friend.

 

The Vert Cradle Braces were a direct bolt-on for the Sedan. Zero issues, perfect fitment.

Is it a handling mod? IDK yet. I also messed around with my rear suspension today, so I'm kind of gingerly getting on the car. And now I need an alignment in the next week or two.

Anyway, pics:

 

Thanks for the picture! Hopefully this helps show why the angle of the edges seem a little odd to me. Idk, maybe because I have been so used to looking at my own trunk that I noticed this part?

Don't get me wrong the bella is still a great looking trunk overall! There aren't too many options and it is great that we are getting more aftermarket support domestically!

In the beginning I was talking to Mark about ordering one, but decided not to since I have my molded trunk. Although I think CC should definitely get one!

 

Tony I like your molded one. I think the bella is nice as well. I'm glad Mark and Stephen came out with these and at a reasonable price too. Best of all they are made here in the US!

Oh and Tony, I hate your TT setup. That is just too much power for someone to be having all that fun with

 

In all honesty I'm just jelly that you have more CF on you car.

 

if it makes you guys feel better I m peanut butter and jealous of both of you............


and Drew and Tommy...

 

Seems like a no-brainer type of mod to do. File me under interested in this one. What were the part numbers on the bolts you had to order?

 

Right in the first post of ModMe's bracing thread:

I'm jelly of all you guys

 

Looking with the CF Trunk!! And i like the way you bolted the cats together with that frame John! Was that just for peace of mind?

 

Initially... because after Alfredo's FI cats snapped their welds, I got worried. So I grabbed the original cross-member and had my mechanic come up with a creative solution.

I say that was the initial reason because it turned out that cross-piece was eliminating a *lot* of vibration at idle, which is all gone now. Pretty happy how all that turned out.

Here's a pic. Had it done last December, just before Winter.

 

John, I really like what your mechanic came up with for the bracing on the FI RHFCs. I've been wanting to do this, but lack of time. There is definitely more vibration at idle with these cats and it's good to know that the bracing alleviates that. Did he have the steel brackets on hand or did you have to pickup some scrap steel somewhere?
