Sounds about right as far as PO's go. Sidebar though, where you gettin' plastidip for $5 a can?
To ad insult to injury, he streched the one can to all four wheels as well. The dip was so thin it become a multi-hour pressure washer task with acetone rag wipes to get rid of it all. Don't forget the 3M carbon wrap on the interior pieces too, that was a rice touch.

It only came with pictures and no template for placement. It just says to copy the placement of the original badge on the opposite end...

Do you notice a difference with the DINAN TB and tune? I'd need those two items for badge points.

OK I bought mine with the Intake and strut bar. Not sure if the rest of the pieces are worth it.
