Decided to do a fade to carbon paint job on the slats. turned out a lot better than I was expecting. I just wanted to do something a little different than having a solid line cutting off the CF.

Dang this reminds me of one gen5 viper I seen. Every cosmetic mod was just perfection. Really well done

Parts powder coated, bumper with new diffuser installed. Emblems being replaced. A91 Edition Spoiler refinished in body color to tie into the spats of the wing and to keep it a little less busy back there. Smoked the reflectors in the rear. They turned out a little darker than I thought they would, but I don't mind.

Exhaust cutouts on the diffuser are perfect. I was hoping there wouldn't be an issue there. It's got a perfect gap around the tips. I couldn't get a good picture because it was a bit dark in the shop.

The powder coating is supposed to be like a black chrome. It doesn't look great in pictures. In person it has more of a shine.

Well this catless down pipe claims no CEL. We will see. Thanks to @Meraki Autoworks for nabbing this up for me.

Nice build man, this is definitely goals right here ?

Quick question man. Has the armytrix downpipe thrown any CEL codes on you?

I haven't installed it yet. If I get the car today I'll probably install it myself on Sunday. I'll have to go through a few drive cycles before I can say anything though.

Gotcha, if you can keep us updated, I’d truly appreciate it. Trying to decide which downpipe to go with, I have an untunable 21, so I’m leaning towards one that has a no cel guarantee. the two I’ve found are a bit over my budget at the time lol

The car is slowly coming back together. Side panel, New skirts, re-worked Door garnishes, and new fenders w/CF rock guards are on. Door garnishes didn't sit flush.

To be real with everyone, every single aftermarket piece needed some form of alteration and additional support added to obtain great fitment. I'm not talking about prep work either. The ONLY pieces that fit damn near perfect were the fenders.

Car should be finished Monday or Tuesday. Only the Hood, Front Bumper, and Emblems remain. CF Mirror caps were refinished in gloss and all CF pieces in the engine bay are now gloss.

Can't wait to get this thing back. I want to keep it for a few weeks before sending it off for performance upgrades. During that time I'll probably get the paint corrected again and have it ceramic coated once more. I may put some PPF on there... But I don't know.

It should be back home tomorrow. Just waiting on the emblems to have the adhesive laser cut.

Can't wait to get the car home and get it detailed.

Edit: Now it seems that it's going to be Wednesday. Emblems aren't quite ready. ?
