Re: Project GTL!
 

So is this the N54 or N55?

Re: Project GTL!
 

Thanks! It was like $48, so not to bad, not much more than a factory mount.

I would think it would be universal fit as long as the threads of the tow hook are the same. What is the tread size of the tow hook on a Gen coupe?

This is a 2011 so a N55.

2007-2008 N54 pre facelift
2009-2010 N54 facelift
2011 N55 facelift

Not sure, but I did some searching and Grimmspeed makes one for my car... but its $80.

Re: Project GTL!
 

Ouch! Well you're welcome to try my tow hook in your car sometime if you'd like.

Also, can't believe I haven't posted this yet.

Found this sticker under the hood! It is for the factory tune. Which is only 20hp and 17tq, and I wouldn't have bought it, but I'll take power I don't have to pay for! Still would like to stop by the dealer and have them confirm or not if it is still on the car.

Re: Project GTL!

Starting to work on the covering up the old man wood! I had originally thought about brushed aluminum, but this CF was super cheap, and had to give it a shot!

Re: Project GTL!
 

Fail.. didnt realize till just now the pattern goes opposite on the different doors... Guess I'll have to redo that if i have extra.

Re: Project GTL!
 

I like it, great work!

Re: Project GTL!
 

Looks good! That's why you started with the back :)

Re: Project GTL!
 

Best part of this wrap is it came without the 3m tax! It is less then 10 dollars shipped off amazon.

Re: Project GTL!
 

Yup! Got 5 - 1ft X 4ft rolls for less than $25 shipped!

Re: Project GTL!
 

^that's dirt!

Re: Project GTL!
 

Looks great!

Re: Project GTL!
 

Got the rest of the wrapping finished up today! I'm happy with how it turned out. Took about 4-5 hours, which isn't bad.

Great results, that was a good project to get done! Nice work.

Re: Project GTL!
 

Thanks guys! I am very happy with how it came out. Makes the interior look much less old man now!

Re: Project GTL!
 

Look really, really good. I am impressed!

Now, for the big question everyone wants to know... What spoiler are you going to put on this thing?

Re: Project GTL!
 

LOL

Re: Project GTL!
 

LOL no wing for now, I have a few other mods I'm thinking of first. I like how low key the car looks for now. I get almost zero attention from cops, which is a big change!

Re: Project GTL!
 

Went for another round of ricer mods :)

I didn't like that the corona ring day time running lights were yellow and didn't match the HID's. So I picked up some LED's off ebay, they are pretty close, for the price. They are a little dimmer than they were, but I have read of some coding that can fix this. I'll have to dig into it, but it is a step in the right direction.
