I'm digging your license plate! I still think it will go above $8.
Me too, I don't plan to sell anymore until 2025

Did you paint it on the car? Hi temp paint?
Yeah the header paint, used the same can for my m2c

I masked everything off really well and pulled of the exhaust tips(hardest part)to make sure I got paint up in between the tips.

What am I missing here?! The nutsack?!?
Lmao yes that way the muffler hangs down is commonly referred to as the ballsack in the m2c forum.

It just really messed up the way the rear and side profile looked to me.

In the pictures you posted above the muffler is painted as well is it not?

It's on:
RGsport modded MSS kit with 18f/15r spacers

I could easily run 18 in the back also, just haven't bought a set

Nice paint job :-)
Agree. That udder looked much worse on the M2C.

Completely understand. I think the side profile actually looks better with the carbon mirror caps (so they are not the only thing carbon from the side) as you can see the side skirt with the front/rear diffuser black bits. Just my opinion. Here’s a little farther out. Crappy photos in cold/wet conditions. Can get better later if you’d like.
How do you like your painted side markers?! I'm on the fence on getting them! I don't have the car yet but I have a room full of mods waiting for the beast to get here!

No photos but I installed my JB4 and went for a drive in map 2. That tmap sensor is a bitch especially with very large hands.

20 minutes outside of the tmap connection. About an hour and a half with. I used:
  • 10, 13, 15 metric sockets
  • I used a small Milwaukee impact gun for the braces but a ratchet works just fine
  • 3 inch extension
  • Small power drill with 3/8ths drill
  • 2 zip ties to hold up aux coolant pump on AC line
  • A set of picks from HF, not dental tools but picks
  • Variety of long flathead screw drivers for airboxes and tmap, minimum 12 inch for tmap lock

It's kind of a lie, I bought it with XLM profits but my big bag is XRP

Sounds like a decent project, I might just tackle it myself this weekend.

Thanks for the info🤙🏼

From the top. I have large hands and installed both RaceChip and JB4 on my G82. You can do it!

I used some large zip ties to crank a few things out of the way. Using a long screwdriver or prybar, gently, helps.

And to add I don't think the bottom is possible. But even struggling from the top is faster than taking the bottom brace off.

Had a strange thing happen last night.

I dropped my GF off and hit the m2 button twice as I was leaving her house as I always do.

There's a steep uphill onto a fast street coming from her house and I usually take the opportunity to get up to speed rapidly.

I turned onto the street and gave it the beans and found myself suddenly sideways in the road!

"WOAH WTF!?"

I looked down at my gauges and saw that I had somehow been put into DSC full off, 0 on Mdrive pro… luckily it was late and the road was empty.

Anyone else randomly found themselves in full DSC off?

That hasn't ever happened and I know for certain I did not do it.
