Invidia Exhaust installed! Thanks to the help of Craig(for letting me use his garage and tools) and DUB?, I appreciate all the help. MINI Maniacs are a great group of people! :rock:

 

EDIT: photos added to the bottom of post #2 on the first page.

*Video clip added for anyone interested in the sound on an R53 with Alta 15% SC pulley and CravenSpeed CAI.

 

EDIT #2: Sorry Craig, my DIY front air splitter/diffuser just came in...

Bought it from a supplier down in CA when I had my Subaru STi. Let me know if you'd like to buy some, I only have flat black.

 

This is what I have:

No worries man, no worries. Just figure out when you'd like to do the install and we can set something up.

Thank you again, but it won't be till after the 15th(typical military payday). I still need to order the center posts.

 

Did u make the splitter

 

No, I had a hired gun. There's a member on another forum that makes them. He has the style you see in my picture and the design that fits the aero kit with the center cut out(if you know what I mean). If you'd like his info send me a PM and I'll give it to you. I don't want to put it out on DCMM, because I'm not 100% sure if it violates any forum rules.

Thank you Ali! It's a "on a budget" mod too! Didn't cost me anything but a little bit of time.

 

EDIT: I think I might make another set that resembles the OutMotoring set.

What did you get done

 

He's the one in the photo above with the sparks. He's cutting my stock exhaust off.

Not going to lie, if someone gave me a Cadillac CTS-V I would have no issues with whatever color they choose. It could be painted with a mural of Barney and Friends playing croquet with Hannah Montana and I would sport it like a Boss! :rock:

 

Unfortunately this is my other car...And I can't ride it for another 4-6 wks.

Now, anyone have the tool needed to remove the brake pads before I buy one?

Anyone know where to buy the tool at a decent price?
