Finally going to spruce up the exterior with a couple of pieces to finish out the car without breaking the bank. Should be here in a week or so

got my rep ait rear canards in today, they were missing a bracket so I'll be waiting for them to send me another. Going to look a little weird without the side skirts but that'll be next month

i had leaking rear drive axles while under power train warranty. Got them replaced by dealer. It was leaking on inside by differential from loose clamp.

Got new side skirt extensions off eBay and painted them black. Also upgrading my brake fluid to ate dot 4. Hoping my spongy braking feel is somewhat resolved. I know dot 4 is overkill for my application but i wanted to try it out

+1 I like it, and not because it's AWD.

Thanks for the love bro! I I may decide it's not done as of yet, but still looking around.

Would still love to have a TOM's rear diffuser... except it'll be around $1k CAD or more when it's all said and done which is a lot for a rear lip. Also played around with the idea of the SARD LSR wing for that two tiered double spoiler look, but that might push me right over that rice vs nice boundary haha
Going to spend the rest of this year just fixing up things like rear knuckle bushings, waterpump, and getting my rear bumper re-finished.
