Let me know how you like the ETS... It is at the top of my list right now.

I dropped my car at the shop today to have several suspension mods done, can't wait to get her back.

Too soon to tell, but it sure did go in nice and easy... took roughly an hour from start to finish!

I am doing a rally in Vegas in August, that will be the true test... multiple pulls in 100+ weather!

Car care weekend: Washed the car and applied the first coat of Menzerna Power Lock sealant today... I'll apply a second coat tomorrow morning, vacuum the interior, and apply Vinylex to the tires.

1). Ordered from ECS Tuning yesterday.

2). UPS shows up at my door this afternoon.

3). Half-hour later:



Love the look. Very subtle. Wasn't going for the can-of-tint-spray or the Lamin-x-type wrap effect. As someone mentioned (Dack?),
the look is very much like a VW tail. Very nicely smoked...classy. It separates the tails (especially on a red car) better that the ones
that came on the vehicle.

That said, the 4-month-old OEM LCIs that are totally virgin are for sale! PM me if intertested!

First wash after applying Power Lock a couple of weeks ago...

The water shed off the car very nicely, though after drying it didn't feel as slick as after I applied the Power Lock... Guess that's to be expected.
