Just ordered my birthday present; Steeda IRS alignment kit, BMR CB005, and a Blowfish soundtube delete kit. Also, my Forgestar CF10's and Firehawk Indy 500's from Paul at PK will be here on Tuesday! :D

Nvmd... I think I found it in AM. Cheaper than the MMD one, but then again is made out of durable injection molded ABS. Does it feel pretty durable/solid?

added this :thumbsup: The cap adds a nice contrast 2 minute install

Can't find a competent shop to wetsand and buff my car so I started myself. I already have the Dewalt direct drive and Porter Cable DA buffer.

Started on the rear driver's side fender. 2000 grit until the orange peel is gone, 3000, and then 5000 grit.

Meguires rubbing compound, Adams polishing compound, and then Adams machine sealant with a carnuba wax.

Took 2 hours for just one panel but it looks amazing.

Of course. I'm going to put everything on at the same time to A) knock it all out at once, and B) go get my alignment right afterwards to ensure my new tires won't have an uneven wear pattern, as my stockers are extremely uneven.

The clear coat must be pretty thick on these cars to take all that without burning through. Looking forward to photos. :thumbsup:

Well it does have high spots. Hence the orange peel.
