Beautiful build! You make that color look proper.

Not sure if you have seen this product. Oem quality. Screw the aftermarket knock off

Mine had two tone rings, cf Y insert, perforated and standard leather in different area.
His had cf Y insert plus an imbedded F logo in the wheel like the oem one. He even sent them the Little F logo.
For what it's worth, both wheels should have been done or refunded long ago.


Jim,
you better start calling...

only extra thing i requested was adding blue stitching in the steering wheel but no way i would wait more than 3 months. i get weary when every time i called, i can't really understand what they were saying because english wasn't their first reason. i just had a bad feeling about it. but their work is good when i finally got my other wheels. put me in a hard spot.

its all in the little things..

love the design and classiness in the gas cap area of the RC-F. reminds me higher end BMWs and Mercedes. had to add to a bit to this area.

sorry guys. haven't been updating anything for awhile. after having my family cat passing a few months back, haven't been the same. I'm trying to put some focus back in the RCF since i tend to do that when the colder weather comes and all it does is sit in the garage.

I ended up putting the Meisterschaft mid pipe on and i literally have the perfect sound IMO. no drone, quiet in side. It gets loud outside, pops and crackles on shifts...basically sounds like a C63 AMG which is one of my favorite sounding motors. sound doesn't do justice from this phone but its sounds like a very exotic muscle car tone.

I am sorry to hear about your cat. Our family was devastated when we lost our dog, so I feel your pain.

Glad that you are feeling yourself again and look forward to some great updates...

That exhaust note is intoxicating, does sound very exotic. Great choices on mods!

I can't tell from your thread your front and rear tire size. Are you running 305/30/19 on the rear only? What's your front and rear wheel offset and tire size? I really like the setup
