Washed it. And no, that brush did not touch the car.

Finally installed Steeda rear subframe braces.
They don't seem compatible with their full length jacking rails, right? I'm pretty sure I used one of those bolts (the one closest to the pinch welds) for it.

Got my carbon fiber mirror covers on
Hey, how do you remove the stock caps, and do they come out without damage? And how is the fit and finish of those Accelatec ones you installed? Do they look OEM? A large plywood platform with spiky epoxy paint fell on my car when it was a day old, and messed up the paint on the right mirror. I'd like to get an OEM cap, but don't think you can buy them painted. So an alternative could be those, although I'm not into C/F. But just curious if it's easy to remove. I might go with the re-paint route. Thanks man.

Mine are coming tomorrow! Easy install?
When I put mine on, the holes didn't quite line up. I ended up using a drill bit to widen one of the slots by a sixteenth of an inch or less, then it was a perfect fit. Even dealing with that, it was about a one hour job.

It's totally worth it IMO. Back end feels more solid and planted in the corners.

Had to Google it, they just pull off.stand behind the mirror with it facing your belly and pull back.

i’m not sure about the jacking rails because I don’t have them on my car but there are three bolt holes and you use two of them that are closer to rear end

Just ordered a CVFab catted Downpipe for my eco. just when I said I was done with my car.

heres a photo I found somewhere of the stock pipe vs cvfab catted, do you think itl be much louder with my set up?

I have a resonator delete (roush y pipe), and AWE touring axle back (essentially will be a full system) except for the little bit of piping from my y pipe to axle backs.

Installed OEM GT350 active exhaust on my 15GT and it sounds amazing!!! I recently bought the exhaust for $300 with 5K miles on it. Fit like a glove as all the stock hangers were plug and play. I had to adapt the xpipe where it met my stock headers with custom exhaust band clamps but it sealed up nice. I didn't get the electric actuators with the purchase of the exhaust so I rigged a pair of cables and throttle linkage to the mechanical linkage on the mufflers. I mounted a discreet little knob under my backup light. "Just push and pull" Turned out nice and works perfectly.
I had already purchased a used GT350 rear valance and exhaust bezels a couple of years ago from a friend for $200. It all finally paid off.
It's nice to have stock exhaust on my car again, even if it is GT350 exhaust.The ride is really quiet until you get on it and then it has a nice growl.
The louder open mode is much louder and sounds really nice.
