Installed the Apexi Accel Controller. Hardest part was getting underneath and figuring out how to pull the OEM connector.

Very happy with the instantaneous throttle response.

Default Custom Front Lip Spoliers / Splitters

Couldn't find the right front lip spoiler or splitters to my liking so decided to make my own with spare materials lying around at home

Any noticeable negative effect on aerodynamics?

Nice! But I think you should make your aero kits thicker to give that less thin board look esp you have a $70-$80k car. Unless you prefer it that way.

Thanks. I'm liking the subtle appearance of the front splitters so I'm confident in the sides with the same theme, but I hear you as I'm riding a fine line on ricer...
