Some more aesthetic goodies on the way:
  • NV Specialties Set of Rear Engine Bay Covers
  • P2uned CF Fenders
  • Grafixpressions A91 Stripes in a Satin CF Design
I'll be selling off the Ings+1 CF Fenders. Don't expect much of a discount since the discount will be the purchaser not having to wait 4 to 5 months for the fenders to get here.

Got the @NVSpecialties rear engine by covers in today. I'll be getting them finish in a satin clearcoat before installing them.

These are direct replacements. Just need to transfer some mounting hardware over.

I also ordered new fender covers since I I botched the existing ones up with Cerakote plastic restorer. It was a lot cheaper just to buy new ones. I figured something so huge would carry a big price tag. They were only $100 for both sides.

When you gonna post up a review/thoughts on that manifold my man? Would you do it again?
I feel like I lack the proper tools and methodology to perform a review for the temperature. The install went smoothly. There is a mod coming out soon that will allow for easier oil filter changes on the old version. The new version of this allows for the filter to be changed out easily.

I haven't had any issues so far. The car runs fine and haven't had any technical problems at all in the past few weeks. Performs as if it was OEM.

I marred the plastic on the radiator section of the Fender/Well Covers a while back and tried to fix them with some Cerakote crap that made it look even worse. I decided to order new ones at $50 and replace them.

I also went ahead and threw my NVS rear engine covers on as well. I still need to get them refinished in a satin clear, but that won't happen until my new fenders get in.

I detailed the engine bay a little bit after I was done.

Aimgain roof spoiler, Varis Track Edition fenders and Varis CF fender protectors are on the way.

I also have a Toyota Katakana badge coming to slap over the AMS logo.

Armytrix ceramic catless downpipe on order.

Thanks to Joshua @Meraki Autoworks for locking one in for me.

With that said, I'll probably be selling my AA catted downpipe. after it arrives.

Hope you don't mind but I might copy you on cutting the engine cover. Love the build so far. Keep up the good work.

I apologize if I'm threadjacking but...

If you're tracking, the intake manifold is probably one of the best mods you can do.

Fenders are in! I'm going to keep the Varis Track Edition fenders and will be posting the INGs+1 up for sale. Both are actually made from carbon fiber, but the INGs is a little lighter.

Now it's time to get this car in the shop for the final stages of cosmetics!!!!!

Back side fender pictures? Curious to see some layup quality differences!

Sorry. I saw this too late. The car is already at the shop. They were both of the same well made quality.

Car has been in the shop since Friday having these components painted/powder coated and/or installed:
  • Seibon MB Diffuser
  • Seibon MB Skirts
  • Seibon MB Front Lip
  • Seibon TSII Hood
  • Varis Track Edition Fenders
  • Varis Carbon Fiber Fender Protectors
  • TEQ Emblem
  • Titanium Works Front and Rear Toyota Emblems w/backplates
  • SCS Custom Plaque
Everything is cosmetic. The shop is going to try a fading technique from carbon to body color for the hood slats/louvers... we'll see how that turns out
