A new rear bash bar, again powdercoated burgandy grape with a provision for the APR GTC500 chassis mount wing as well as tapped holes for a license plate, since the amuse bumper doesn't have any.

Mock-up of said chassis mount wing. It'll swing back for hatch access. Cut outs coming.

Long story but the car has to be completely repainted. The good news is no additional cost to me.

Here are a few in process shots.

I need more aggressive rears (by about 25mm) and possibly less aggressive fronts. I hope to know for sure after some time with the car this weekend.

The bash bar was custom made by a local shop, they have since gone out of business so there's no chance of reproducing it.

The overfender are Aimgain. They fit great with OEM side skirts and the Amuse bumper. I can't really speak for any other bumper.

More coming at you. After 5 yes of ownership I finally installed some hood struts (now that hood bulge isn't an issue) also mocked up the aimgain side blades which will be done in carbon fiber and the APR Amuse splitter. Other than that I spent more time adjusting suspension and swapping hoses.

Shes certainly come a long way since then. That was the day I denounced 20" wheel, I drove over a train track on the way home and with the 25 profile tires in the rear dented both my rear wheels. :(

I'd be lying if I told everyone I didn't have feelings of remorse over the past several months. Often I thought "I should have just left the car the way it was last summer and swapped out wheels for something less aggressive" but seeing it all come together and in one color has brought me back to loving the vision I had back in January. The best part about this... once done, and there is still a lot left to do, the car will be drive-able and enjoyable. At ride height my suspension specs are damn near OEM. I wont be creeping around corners etc anymore I'll be using the car how it was intended.

Here a glimpse of the original vision to how she sits today.

I'm in the same boat.

What platform are we going to move to now Steve? Your buddy is going to kill the BMW game so we should pick something else. Maybe Porsche's? :icon17:

Which buddy?! I love the gt4 but that's a downgrade IMO so it would have to be a gt3 and I don't have the cash for that... maybe if I hadn't built a z that doesn't move.

call APR, they can do custom splitters, just put your bumper on some cardboard and trace out your bumper and they can make it for you.
