Those look nice but $50 for screws, thats a little crazy.




Don't be scared, T30 is a decent sized bolt should come out quickly and clean. Buy a nice T30 tool and try it, should not take too much torque to break it free, if it you feel its stuck don't force it too much, easy it does it. One of those things, give it a shot first and then if you see you not going anywhere take it somewhere. I bet you can get that thing swapped in 10 minutes.
+1. I like the value proposition of the product, but I'm not thrilled with the pricing either. @ThanksGTA created his own collection of hardware that essentially does the same thing for a 1/5th of the price. Here's the post if you're interested.

nice.

I think for $50 I would expect titanium screws and even then, still a bit expensive. I hope my suspicion is wrong and that the quality at least of the bolts is superior to what is being sold on amazon. I totally would pay more for better hardware all day long, although not $50.

Tuxmats finally back in stock, so picked up the rear tray/seat back protector. Still debating what I want to do for the rest of the mats.

How much of a PITA is the ASC module? Mine is far less aggressive, but I'd still prefer not to have it, and I am sure it leads to addtl. distortion (intermodulation, etc.) when you are listening to music or something.

You just pull the side panel on the passenger dash, then the glove box surround, and then the dash trim?
It’s not bad. The hardest part was removing the vent assembly, because I was worried about prying around it and marring the dash. I found that once the side panel was removed, I could access a few of the vent assembly clips from inside the dash and push on them with a trim removal tool and got them to pop out. Once I got a few popped, the rest was easy.

My first time attempting and type of wrap. I'd give myself a B-.. Oh well, most imperfections I'm sure only I will notice.
Nahhh, I’d say that job’s better than a B- for sure! It looks great with that red boot too. Nice work!

If I ever want it re-done I will likely try to pay you to do it 😂.

Thank you for the great service and communication during the purchasing process.

Drove over a drainage grate that must have been sticking up a bit, and it apparently caught on my front lip. Tore my front bumper right off, which I then proceeded to drive over 🤦‍♂️. Had to reverse over it to get it.

Ah... the joys of owning a lowered car with a front lip.
