Received my custom front and rear emblems from Qiasi EmblemArt.Studio. The whole process took 2.5 months but man do these look sick. I worked with Ryan (customer communications and support) to take my design from illustrator/photoshop to a physical product. Continuing with my theme of using the seigaiha pattern on the car I wanted something on the exterior to tie into the valve cover emblem.

Check out their IG page I linked above as it shows the tedious and beautiful process of making one of these emblems. It's all handmade so on extreme closeups you can see imperfections, but it adds to the physical/humanizing feel when you think about how intricate the design is. They're a team of 6 working on fulfilling orders. The cost to value is really great as you're only left to your imagination to come up with something personal and unique.

These are absolutely stunning.

Thank you! I've been trying to help them get more exposure as I really think they're slept on in terms of what they offer to making our vehicles more personal to us. I'm discussing making an interior piece for the car so I can complete having exterior, interior and engine bay with something uniquely personalized.

Went out to practice shooting video and at the end just popped off couple of shots to make this photo. Got home at 12am and I just had to edit it then go to bed at 2am cause I'm stupid. Of course when I relook at it in the morning it's mid.

Car is currently with Santos getting the fuel upgrades installed. Wanted to document again but I was informed by my wife we're going to the Natural History Museum. 🫠

Ordered some custom titanium parts from Russia. The owner Vadim was great to work with and ensured the quality of the product. I've actually been following his ig account: Yperion Titanium for years and finally decided to place an order. Also got his dip stick handle in matte gray finish to match the Alplus ti oil cap. Just need to transfer the oem metal stick when I get the chance.

Production and shipping took about a month total to land at my door. No issues just takes awhile once shipped.

Started to learn video as I should have decades ago.... definitely a bit overkill for the product but hey the road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom. 🫪

Pracworks intake manifold arrived! I ordered mine through Michael via email to get a custom order in. Great customer service all around. Pracworks had this made a shipped out to me within 3 weeks from Malaysia. Huge props for great business transactions.

I ordered large weave carbon kevlar with nickel finish. Nothing fancy on the config for the intake as I don't have plans to go bigger TB or port injection.

Inside of the manifold....

Looks sweet...For comparison, here is a PIC that they sent me of the small weave carbon kevlar with a polished finish. I think the one you ordered with the large weave carbon kevlar and matte finish looks much better.

Ahhh yeah maybe if the anodized parts were silver or blue it'd flow better. What did you opt for?

Should decide in the next few days but definitely going with the Nickel anodized parts. I sent them an email inquiring to see if they have any other Kevlar/Aramid color options available. Leaning more towards a large weave red Kevlar if available and would like to see what it looks like with a matte vs polished finish.
