What did you do to your FL5 today?

Only been waiting forever, but finally got this beauty

I forgot to post on this when it came in several weeks ago. It's a lovely piece. The faux aluminum is one of the design/material mismatches on the interior of the car I loath. Anyhow, glad there's a fix.

Sounds like you bought just the boot then, not the boot with the mount they sell? How hard was the install?

Super easy. I wouldn't buy the premade setup unless you really care about being able to return to 100% stock.

I found several sources (~10) but ended up purchasing it through Poitiers Autosport, a dealership based in Western France. I do not recommend ordering it from them. You can also source it from Tegiwa, who I do recommend. I also have several contacts at other dealerships in Europe, if necessary. Even though you have the part number you will absolutely want to confirm it's for a LHD car (NOT left hand traffic).

The part number is 08Z03-T60-600A.

Installed dash cam that I had from my previous car after I was stopped at a stop sign (sitting still stopped!) and a person in a black BMW turned left into my lane. I honked the horn which made them stop about 10ft from my front bumper. Didn’t see me even though I was plain as day waiting at the sign. Scary how easily/quickly some numbskull can nearly mess up your new ride.

Thanks!! Mind sharing a rough idea on the cost all in?

~$700 shipped. The cost will fluctuate with the exchange rate since the list price will be in €.

I hadn't realised what a difference that'd make, looks so much better!

Agree. The carbon centre console panel and the carbon fiber interior door panel bits really completes the interior look. Since you're in the UK you will have a much easier time sourcing the centre console panel at least.

Good stuff! Let us know how the install goes and your thoughts. Also, videos please!

I didnt technically do anything but finally pulled the trigger on a set of wheels. Just need to find some tires now and get them mounted. Hopefully by the end of the month

Did you get the wheels? Even if you haven't mounted them... Do you Jace thoughts? How is the quality?

Yup they shipped and showed up really quickly. I just picked up tires for them yesterday and will see when I can get them mounted up. Most likely next week as my schedule has been really busy.

Initial impressions are good, they were packaged really nicely and definitely protected well. The finish looks really nice but I will see once I get some miles to see how durable it is. Overall they seem really good for the money. They aren't Volk's but shouldn't expect that for 1/4 the cost.
