Looks great! Do you have a link to the Figs rotors you bought? I am not seeing those black ones on their site.

Thanks

Defratos

There's only 1 set of 2-piece rotors they sell and when they're brand new they are coated black but with the first use the black coating is warn off. Now my rotors look like any other rotors, apart from the painted hub section and the grove design.

This is the link to the rotors: http://www.shopfigs.com/v1/index.php...product_id=125

Couldn't you have hardwired the camera directly into the mirror?

Defratos

I probably could have but heard it involves soldering wires which I don't want to do.

At least with using the add a fuse and connecting it to the glove box I can always take it out and I can control when I want the camera to be switched on.

The way I did it I can have the dashcam on while the car is switched off and parked and I can enable parking mode which is like a security mode if the camera detects movement it starts recording while the car is off.

Rear OEM fogs lights Installed:

Parts needed are as follows:

New indicator Stalk which includes the additional selection for the rear fog light: 84140-30311

New Rear Inner Light clusters which include the rear fogs:
81580-53071 Lamp Assy, Rear, RH
81590-53071 Lamp Asse, Rear, LH

Changing the indicator Stalk was pretty straight forward after watching one or two videos on YouTube, and changing the rear Lamp was even easier. Pics below for reference of the change but it was a simple plug a play.



The only thing I’m trying to sort out now is displaying the rear fog lights on my dash when they’re switched on.

The light for the rear fogs is in the dash but I think it needs to be programmed by the dealer or something.

I’ve looked into Techstream but can’t find anything to help activate this light.



Old Vs New Indicator Stalk:


Bottom Lights are the new ones with the fogs installed:

Swapped my RR Racing LCA Bushes to Figs Bushes:

The RR Racing Bushes were on for a good 2 years and have been great but I needed to do maintenance and had the Figs Bushes with me so I swapped them out.

Does seem the ride is slightly less harsh but that could be all in my head. the RR Racing LCA Bushes did make a big difference in keep the car tracking straight which I liked. In the future I might be fitting them back in.

Well she's finally arrived in the UK, I bought a Porsche Cayenne GTS as a replacement (family car) and I just had to keep the ISF so shipped her to the UK.

Took a little under 2 months for shipping, registration, MOT etc... and got her back around mid July.

Oh and they managed to fix my rear fog-light indicator on the dash as it wasn't lighting up before (I believe they did some custom wiring to get it working)

Still have a lot planned for her so I'm glad she's in a safe place right now , some pics below:











I managed to get hold of some reflective number plate stickers, so took off the front number plate holder and put on a sticker instead, makes the front end look cleaner imo.

Thanks for posting this link

Already posted this on a separate thread, but adding it to my build thread to keep things in order.

So finally got sometime to install the Greddy Ti Exhaust.

As previously stated I had to do a slight modification to the mid pipes to include HFCs (to pass yearly MOT inspection), so I didn’t use the Greddy Ti mid-pipes, instead I had a new set made out of SS with cats and resonator.

I’ve only driven around for like 1 and half weeks and had to travel, loving it the more I drive it and reminds me of how the car used to sound with the Joe-Z Exhaust.

I was surprised to see I had a significant exhaust leak when I took of the OEM exhaust. Driver side bottom was pretty bad, and passenger side Top seems to have started to leak (below pics).

I hope this custom installation should in general give a much better compatibility between the PPE Header flanges and exhaust flanges.

I believe the OEM exhaust is around 32kg and the Greddy comes in at 15.8kg....But my mid-pipes are stainless steel and not titanium to get it road legal for the UK (GESI Cats installed) so I might be closer to 20kg with this setup.

Still a decent 10-12kg of weight saving.

Did red leather come as an option where you are? We didnt get that in the States. I am super jealous as red leather interior is what I really want. Car looks immaculate.

Yes Red Leather and even Black Alcantara middle inserts became option choices in the later year models..

Definitely not found on 08' - 10' OEM specs.

Alcantara showed around 2011 and Red Leather 2012..

Available in prior years also was Alpine White and Terra cotta orange (very rare & unpopular).
White was also an option at the launch since 08'

Nice thread bump! Great build. Exhaust looks amazing. Love the custom mid-pipe. Any check engines light? Stock tune?
