Been really busy and haven't updated this thread, I have added a camera and LED turn signals and this Friday wrapped calipers that glow at night. Also door sill plates and carbon fiber engine car cover.

Do you have any pictures of the brake caliper install? My friend and I tried to do it on the ISF and the calipers were way too hard to install it on..

Ok here it is the caliper wrapped in F-Sport blue, the lettering wrapped in black reflective. I love the way it looks.

Was it just vinyl wrapping? is that 3m 1080? How hard will it be done by ourselves? Sorry for all the questions.

Did you ever get a chance to take a video of the gthaus? I had it on my G37S and loved it, now I want to get it for my GS. How is it on a day to day basis? To the valves make a big difference?

Yes vinyl wrapping, it was 3m I'm not sure about how hard as the wrapper did it, seemed easy to him pretty much lining up the seams.

I'm trying to get that video as I need someone to video tape it and have a street I won't have to worry about getting pulled on. The day to day is ok but can sometimes can be loud. The valve is excellent and works perfectly. When I get a chance.

Did you pair it with the invidia the same day you installed the GTHaus axle back? I'm thinking about getting just the axle back, I don't want something as loud as the full cat back I had on my G37S, but I do like the idea of having the valves, which my G didn't have.
