Hey mate,

Car looks great. Love the colour, and the choices you’ve made in terms of mods. Very nice!!

I also hear you on the lack of responses to posts! I also have an active build thread going which seems to get practically zero feedback or comment!

Maybe we can just drop in and out of our threads and help each other out?

Keep up the good work my friend.

Cheers,


Pete

Awsome mods you've done, Tom's body kit but with Wald rear diff and that color, it's a very good combo

thank you! I also like the combo, I felt the Toms diffuser was more mild compared to the more aggressive Wald. I’m stuck on if I should get the vented hood now. I really like the novel hood but no one sells it plus it’s a little over priced.

Tom's diffuser makes the rear already agressive, but I agree about the Wald, it's the more agressive !
Novel hood is like Lancer Evo ones, personally prefer the Seibon, and like this you save money for supercharger haha

I'm having this debate right now... going for Seibon vs Novel. A part of me wants to go Novel just because the Seibon is so common.

You have one of my favorite cars. Do you tarp your car daily? Any issues with moisture under the car cover? I park mine in a 3/4 enclosed carport, so I may cover it this winter but was worried about moisture and mold.

I am thinking about getting universal vents molded in similar to the TRD hood.

thank you! and I have it covered about 4 days out of the week honestly. I find it actually gets dirtier with the cover because the moister leaves water/dirt spots everywhere once it dries. what I really need is a garage.

A local shop makes these and they can also mold them in. I am currently waiting on a reply about pricing.

Nice!

Probably not a bad way to go as weight saving with say the Seibon like mine over the OEM hood was minimal at best.

Think this could be made to look good with the right shop involved.

Best of luck mate.

Love the color you chose for this thing! I think I've come across it in IG a few times.

Honestly I’d pay a chunk for a carbon roof. More headroom and a lot of weight savings at the highest part of the car. I bet the roof and sunroof weigh close to 100 pounds. I’m to much of a scaredy cat to do that mod myself. I wonder what one installed would cost.
