just a couple more things to do... some custom ram air grills are in the works, and if they go well I will be doing the same to the side vents. Also will be getting a porter cable and menzerna IP and FP to take care of the swirlies. Then I will be just about done. just about..

Badass man, Love Black WS6's, and the TT's with those custom badges are sweet.

I liked the yellow but I like the new setup as well.

BTW, what exactly did you do to polish your brakes. I attempted it but they rusted (I know I need to clear) but I just ended up painting them orange, and they came out good on my car.

Where is the air dam? Just wondering. Did you delete it, or are you using something else in its place?
