Thanks! Was great to finally have some time to do something, parts have been sitting in garage for months!

New wheels and tires sitting in garage also, need to get them mounted so I can install. Also sitting in garage are the front lip kit (matte black) and rear spoiler (color matched). Not sure I can install those two, how do people do the spoilers when you have to bend (push) into place and get the tape right first time, crazy.

Side note, what do other peeps do with parts they take off?

Where did you get the pedals and foot rest?

Are those OEM or replica? I went with replica.

I really want to do the keyhole mod but am a little scared based on what I've read so far about the latch falling out and being hard to put back together. I need to just sack up!

All OEM parts, I like perfect fitment

Keyhole cover was not bad, I did read about some people having issue with latch, but just don't touch the door handle when doing it Also, writeups all say use a torx bit, but mine was not a torx it was a hex bit..

Stupid easy tboooe , hardest part was fitting the key cylinder to new cover...EXACT fit. Took about 10 min

Finally got my new tires mounted to new rims today! Hope to get them on the car this weekend, want to pull each one off and clean it all back in there, especially the calipers

Where did you get those floor mats?

[325MBKK]

Great choice for tires! Michelin Pilot Super Sports is what I run on my Porsche for years and it's the only brand that can keep up with endless torture. Never had an issue with them. Vredestein on the other hand... well..

Thanks man! Pretty excited to get off the RFTs

Decided to convert this from my one random post to a mod journal because I don't think I am done yet

Initial post has been updated with lots-o-info. Yay.

Looking good. What are you looking to get coded?

Thank you!

Some things I would like to code would be,

• disable ASS
• kill warnings/disclaimers
• m perf dash logo and startup animation
• tire pressure readings
• video in motion
• cameras in motion
• unlock doors when put in park, or ignition off
• fold mirrors when parked, if possible

[TunaRollz]

I did my own coding for my f10 and f32. Some features that are on your wish list. I do local coding on the side for folks when I have spare time if ur interested.

Welcome to the dark side... muahhaha
