Well.. Mine did, and now I'm wondering if I broke/stripped something.
Seems unlikely to strip since the included rear bolts were too small (like, M8 as opposed to M10) and seemed oriented toward the 2020 model as they came with nuts that you would presumably use to lock the bolt in with from the bottom since the hole isn't threaded on the 2020.

EDIT: maybe the rear holes are smaller on the 2020? Either way I believe they are not threaded, so nothing to strip in that regard. Maybe they are just snug, you could try seeing if you can pull them out or not.

Blitz does it so they don't have to have a separate 20 and 21 strut bar.

If you have a 21, re-use existing bolts, if you have a 20 and don't want to tap the hole...use the provided bolt and nut.

Had the door panels painted gloss black, added the a90 stripes and tried to add some color to the interior by painting seat trim and adding color rings to the knobs.

Are the red ring friction fit or replacements? I have similar on my evo and they had sandpaper on the inside edge that bit into the plastic oem knobs.

AA catted downpipe installed! The pops felt louder and the note sounded a bit deeper on the way back home. Hopefully I can pull some great audio clips on a cruise I'm doing with some buddies on Saturday.
mine got louder the more miles I put on it

The climate control ones just fit over the existing knobs. The iDrive ring has 3M tape.

Installed Blitz Strut Tower Bar today.

Worth noting that if you have a 2021, the rear bolts included with the kit will not fit, but the existing OEM bolts will. Or if you are OCD like me you can go buy some M10 x 40mm bolts that match the front ones that came with the kit.

I have a 2021 and used the included hardware for the rear. I like for things to match. The Blitz bolts would just spin freely by hand because of smaller diameter. The nut and lock washer is a must with the thinner bolt.

Where did u get them? Also where did u get the carbon fiber trim on the volume(1-8 ⬅➡) part.
The preset button surround is from OLM (FTSpeed.com) and the red climate control rings are from ijdmtoy.com

Done a 6 hour each way trip down to the coast (550 miles total) over the weekend. Camped out for a couple of nights and very happy with the comfort of the car for the journey, Plenty of space for a couple nights camping gear and no aches or pains from the seats.
Most importantly managed to hit the 40's MPG which gave around 400 miles to the tank. Pretty impressive I must say.

This is a work in progress. We're trying to figure out what to do with this engine cover. I like the way this looks, but I'm still thinking about just cutting it straight down the middle. Some input would be appreciated.
