Everyone was going crazy over some mode tips and I found some carbon tips with m badges on eBay. All black. Cost me 250 and the install was 200. 🤷🏽

Klienfeld,

Where did you get the trunk spoiler? Is it carbon fiber? How's the fit and how is it staying on? Looks nice!!!

That's from Russia with love. It's fiberglass. JL motoring is supposedly making a carbon one to match their carbon roof spoiler but haven't heard from them. It's on with 3m. Pretty sturdy.

I think I have that same one on my Ebay watch list but couldn't tell how well fitment is. How is the fit? Did it have any uneven/high spots or did it sit flush the with relative ease?

Klienfeld303, do the carbon tips just slip on the factory ones or replacements where the old ones were removed and new tips welded on? My Dinan tips are a bit bruised and faded so I was going to find replacement tips.

Also, where did you get the all black trunk roundel? iND is out of stock on those.

It's ugly as hell when it arrives and it weighed a ton at the time but after it's painted and stuck on there it looks cute enough to forget all those slights. I don't regret it.

Went to a muffler shop behind Shea stadium. He cute the oem tips off and welded these joints on and measured them so they were even and equal depth. They look good. I'm not mad.

IND took a minute to send it to me but it's worth the wait man. Changes the look of the booty.

iND's website says sold out so I can't even order them.

Did you add the black overlays to cover the white and blue area?

I noticed you have the NIVI option grill. Did you purchase the blacked out grill aftermarket? And if so, was it a specialized grill for the slats part with the NIVI housing built in?

I'm trying to figure out if there's two types of kidney grills for the reasons of NIVI.

Thanks!

Yeap. Make sure you use windex and a magnifying glass. I know that sounds terrible but it helps with positioning.

I just purchased regular aftermarket black grills without the NIVI option and just replaced the outer surrounds

Random question (on a random post thread ) but do you guys think adding CF mirror covers, kidney grilles and side vents to go with CF splitter, diffuser and side skirts would be overkill?
