Decided to step up the rear rotors to 380mm now that Racing Brake is close to releasing them. 17183C6A-432A-4338-8F56-25DB1B649729.jpeg

File this under crap that bugs me but maybe not you...but I fixed it anyway.
The oem plate light housings both face the same way. Probably not an issue with an incandescent bulb but if you swap in LED’s you wind up with the left light facing the plate and the right light facing nothing that needs to be lit up. If you wanna fix it, pop the housing out and look at the little indent where the snap locks it into place. Now take a razor knife and trim a heavy 1/8” off just above and below the indent. Flip the housing around and snap it back into place. Trim small amounts and don’t blame me if you fat finger it. lol
Top to bottom:
Stock
Lights facing same direction
Modified
Lights facing each other like they should. View attachment 1207

Just to confirm you are cutting the plastic trim that the light housing snaps into, and cutting on the side of the existing indent (not the side it will eventually snap into when corrected). Something like that in red? I'm sure it will make more sense when I go outside and look at my car.

These rear panels designed by Bruce Criscuolo are amazing. I can’t wait to get this thing on tonight. 52860E6E-ADD5-4B3E-992D-8C7D84C6AAA3.jpeg 29B3CABF-806D-446D-90C3-86971E7E582E.jpeg 174A423A-E26C-4AAF-99D6-11396333C65D.jpeg

Well that was painfully easy to install. Love the finished look though. FE3391A4-01BD-4418-9B58-A385B293E9EA.jpeg

Save this...someone put a lot of effort into it. A couple of screw counts are off and the crash bar is 13mm, not 12 but other than that it made my life super easy.

Hey Unbroken, could you send me or post the Whipple IC install sheet again? I tried to open it keeps saying the IRL signature has expired. My IC will be delivered this week and could use any additional information on installation.

I did and got the same message… I tried on my laptop also and got the same thing as on my phone. Not a big deal though, I am sure I can remove all the front end parts without any hiccups.

I’d send it to you but it’s on my laptop in the office and I’m on vacation until the 28th. If your on any of the FB groups hit up Tyler Clark…he’s the one that sent it to me.

The intercooler comes with the same set of instructions, or at least mine did.
