No one is reading 60 pages of information. Usually for something this long you would have someone update the first post or create threadmarks to link people directly to informative posts.
And even for people who have read damn near every page (like myself) there is so MUCH conflicting...
Finished polishing as best as I could. Everything has been reinstalled. So much work for stuff that is pretty much hidden.

Car goes into the shop tomorrow for downpipe, exhaust, and other goodies.
Finished. The pipes were in rough shape. This is as good as I can get them. I think they'll look good once I get them in the engine bay.

After:
Stripped the powder coating from MST and AMS pipes. The pipes were in way rougher shape than I though they would be. Powder coating does a fantastic job of hiding surface imperfections.
I went ahead and finished one pipe. Sanded and polished by hand with a beer. Not perfect, but I love it...
Spent time getting one pipe done. It's not perfect, but I kind of like the imperfections. Hand sanded and hand polished.

After:
I'll finish the other 2 tomorrow.
Stripped the black powder coat from the MST and AMS pipes today. I didn't expect them to be look so rough. Powder coating does an amazing job of hiding a lot of stuff.
I am going to attempt to sand the aluminum and then get it polished. This is going to take a few beers.
This is for local pickup in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area of NC.
I'm looking to sell this as a package deal for $1000. This does not include the electronic brake.
This was from a 2021 that had 3800 miles at the time. This includes:
Mounts
Front and rear Rotors
Frant and rear Calipers...
I am having the exhaust system changed out on July 15th. I will be able to take pictures around that time. It will have about 5200 miles on them at the time of removal.
I'm looking for $250. Local pick up only (Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill). PM me if you're interested.
6/6/20. They said that they are able to do it. They will be calling me back with a quote for everything that I listed for them to do. I'll make sure to get clarification and what they have as a cut off date.
I've had other shops tell me the same thing, but they never even attempted to check if...
So I found a shop that has successfully unlocked and tuned 06/06/2020 cars. I'll be heading there this month with everything. I'll keep everyone posted.
My issue was from the rear ride height sensor being in the wrong orientation for the shop that did the install.
Also if that plastic bracket gets warped, broken, or not set back properly that can also be an issue.
Visconti sells a billet aluminum replacement...
Wow!! I'm Jealous. I tried to get some Works, but they would not fit my new brakes.
Today I took a snapshot of my progress with the car. It's a little dirty, but was too lazy to wash it today. July 15th it will be going into the shop for some installs that I can not do at my house.
I need to...
Selling for $520 shipped in the US. They are about $740-ish from the dealership.
Please PM me if interested. Items are packed and ready to go. I can get this shipped tomorrow (07/03). The earliest I can do after that might be Tuesday 07/06 because of the holiday.
Was terrified to take off the mirror caps myself... but after doing the steering wheel swap I figured I'd give it a go. It was so much easier than I thought it would be. It only took me about 20 minutes from start to finish. I had more trouble getting the painter's tape to go under the mirror...
Well... I'm rolling the dice with a Spectre filter. I heard they were crap a long time ago before being acquired by K&N. If anyone can find a better filter in the same color theme I'm all ears. Edelbrock makes one, but it's the same filter with their logo and an added gimmick. K&N also has one...
