All, Thank you for the nice comments. She is coming along. I’m taking a different approach with this car. I’m trying to get everything done quickly but exactly the way I want it so that I can sit back and enjoy the car for a couple years. The down side is the upfront cost rather than spreading it out…

Yes, although I think it is an imitation. I bought it for $500.00 NIB from the classifieds and was under the impression it was real but it missing the Lexon logo on the front. Although it is real CF and was a perfect fit. The brake intake ducts are vinyl wrapped. They look pretty good but I think I’m going to have my spare set sent off to be redone in real CF. I don’t think the wrap will hold up long.

Is that the Lexon CF front spoiler? If so that's the one I just ordered from VIP and now I definitely can hardly wait!!!

(hadn't seen many good up close pics of the CF version)
Is that the CF vinyl wrap in your brake intake ducts or actual CF?

Yeah brake intake ducts, was not sure of the proper terminology…

Meet me at the track. It's the only way to tell what is truly better. Feel means nothing when the watch is ticking off seconds.
