Update: Trunk/spoiler paint work is finished. Will post pics later this week hopefully.

Installed Steeda's rear adj. camber arms so I can easily dial in the rear camber as needed. Excellent quality billet aluminum pieces as opposed to the OEM cast iron. Less bushing deflection than OEM, no NVH and easy on car adjustable camber.... what is not to like.

I still do not trust four 1/4-20 screws holding the adjuster socket into the aluminum. Especially when one or two of them are only 1/4 deep into the aluminum. You may want to get longer flat heads because the hole is deep enough to accept a 1" long bolt. Just my opinion.

It crossed my mind but with many in use on the S550 platform and on their own Q500R race car resulting in no known failures it works for me. If Steeda has done destructive testing I would like to hear about it as well.

Having 2 of the 4 screws only 1/4" deep into the aluminum only allows for 4 threads. That's expecting a lot.
I myself would replace them with longer screws and add a cross section bolt.

I've asked them many times for testing results and was ignored.

Step one complete:



The black candy on the C2C R spoiler turned out killer. Black in low light and translucent in light. The depth is crazy. Should have it wrapped up tomorrow for completed pics and weights.

I like to disassemble things.
You are definitely taking this thing to another level. Nice work!

Spoiler came out great. Three coats of custom mix black candy clear. Amazing depth. Black in low light and translucent in bright light where you can see the carbon fiber weave.

Letting the paint cure a couple days more before installing the stripes.



Can't wait to see it in person! Will you have it all done before cars and coffee?

Yes with the exception of the Watson roll bar/FR rear seat delete install.
