Raceseng Ashiko translucent blue to match DIB (as close as I could get anyways). 675 grams of awesome. I love the weight, the color, and the engraved shift pattern. Came with an adapter that fit perfectly, no grinding or clanking, and the reverse lockout works perfect.

Here's to hoping I don't burn the shit out my myself come summer in Texas (I definitely will).

Trunk lid holes

@ManBearPig Thanks! I live out in Aledo, west of Fort Worth.
@davekro Thanks! I bought it from a local guy that has a CS/GT car and changed out to an aftermarket spoiler. I wasn't a fan of the black look, so I had it paint matched. My car is a performance package car and didn't have a spoiler from the factory, but from what I understand the CS/GT spoiler will not cover the factory holes.
I sure wish I could recall where I saw the post where someone posted a picture of their trunk lid with the spoiler removed that showed the holes. I believe they were installing an aftermarket spoiler.
Edit: Well shoot, it was NOT in the 17 page CDC spoiler thread (last post 10/15). That was a time suck to review. :doh:
:)

Brent, I've been following your progress for a while now and have been watching closely as I want to perform in HPDE's as well. My DIB GTPP is due to arrive the end of this month.

Do you have the rear wing bolted to a spare deck lid? Also, it seams that installing the front splitter is a process. Do you really go through all the effort to remove it and then reinstall it? Do you have it attached differently in order to make the process less a pain?

I just typed up an update in my build thread then accidentally deleted it. i'll redo tomorrow if I have time. I do have a spare trunk lid the wing is bolted to. I'm planning on doing 1/4 turn dzus fasteners for the front splitter, but I ran out of time before the track event so I just used normal bolts for the time being. It really only takes about 15-20 minutes to take the bumper off though. Not something I want to do on a regular basis though.
