Will do. Just came back from Sebring. Next track day is in two weeks. ISF wont make it then, but will in March.

Finished making a front cover for the gauge controls.



Put in new headlights and new bumper clips (front and side)





New bumper (other one was a little marked up from the front license plate), LED Fogs and new bottom grill



All that is left to do is mount the bumper. Trim it where the Inter-cooler pipes protrude and install the under tray.
I have been idling the car until it gets to operating temperature every day. Then checking everything. Will do that a few more times before I button her up.

Great thread!

Be interested to hear how much work is needed to make your new bumper fit. I've got an Aimgain bumper to fit at some point, so not sure how much difference that'll make to the supercharger install??

Thanks again for documenting your install, will be a very useful guide in the future.

Look forward to reading how you get on mate.

Cheers.

Cut a brand new bumper to fit the inter cooler pipes :0







Cut the corner of the fog light housing so that it wont hit the intake filter



Front bumper back on loosely








Stock front grill fit (since I cut the back of the emblem....see earlier post)

Buttoned the car up.......



Finishing touches......






For those looking for videos, you may have to wait a little longer. I plan to take it easy for the next 200 miles or so, checking the install often. Saturday I will install clear bra on the fenders, install the front lip and Tom's rear diffuser. I will post drive videos soon after.
