Have you had a chance to use this yet? If so, how do you like it?

In a couple of weeks I will use it and give a review

Finally received all my brake parts

Install is planned for next weekend.

Had to order a new door seal for my passenger door. Leaking water during heavy rain

[obert]

Can’t wait to get these mounted and on my car.



So fat

Did my front brake upgrade today

Used it today and it worked perfectly.

I think I might have an up dated one. This one has one hose from the tank to the reservoir not two pieces so less chance of a leak. No issues with the cap that goes on it either. I will never use anything else.

Glad to hear. I need to pick up something like this for my other vehicle.

The upgraded brakes will look great behind the new wheels!

Thanks

Yeah I can’t wait. I have to work 6 day weeks for the next two weeks so getting the tires together will have to wait.

How was installing the brakes? I just ordered slotted rotors and ceramic pads for mine

It wasn’t bad at all. Just took some time because I did a full brake fluid flush as well.

Finally getting a backup camera

They took my offer of $350

Received them yesterday. They look nice and low profile. I already have new tape for them but it’s snowing a lot right now so I have to put working on my car on hold for at least a week or two

Ah nice. Curious how the CF roof spoiler will look, don't think I've seen too many of those.

And I know, damn this winter weather. Car season (if that's a thing, it is for me lol) can't come sooner!

Ultimate LED Sequential smoked mirror turn signals. Will post pics after install and give a review.

Just reviewed your post from the start to present. Hugely impressed with what you have done to your car, yourself. Lots of time, money and dedication to this project. Looking forward to more updates when you have the time.
Lots of snow here too.

My snow



Thanks for the comment! I have had sever cars over the last 15 years. I want to build this one to what’s I consider perfect or close to it. Still have a ways to go but it’s getting there

[obert]

I have a back up camera

Installation was really easy and the kit required no coding. Nice wide view as well. One thing I have noticed after the install is my cars start button will wake up and go to sleep several times after the car is turned off. It will do this until the car goes to sleep. Not a big deal but it was not doing that before I installed this.
