In the spirit of the renewed interest of the One series Tii. This is a nice video of its unveiling. It would be cool if you guys could also get the blue lug nuts.

Done. Color matched a cap to my paint code. Looks nice
Some people put an /M letter on the bootlid, why cant we use tii? In the video the man even sais Tii is "their interpretation on how they can make it even sportier".

Stig can verify if it's right. I'm pretty sure it is. Just missing the disa valves.
Valves aren't cheap, and they don't seem to add to the price of the manifolds, so I would wait for one that has them already.

///M does refer to a specific thing. The Tii badge hasn't been on a car in 40 years, so I feel we have safely transitioned into homage status.

We'll sucks I was all over that manifold but he doesn't ship overseas, so I ordered pagid sports brake pads front and rear, going to piece the brakes slowly since it was my last batch of money I had saved. Car won't be on the road till June. Debating on good rotors. Was looking at powerslot rotors and hawk quiet slot rotors. I don't know if anyone has any experience with these?

Very nice, I'm yet to see them in person and won't be home for a few hours. Hopefully they turned out well.

I'm also thinking about putting mine on the inside of the trunk lid. As for the other one, i really haven't figured that out yet.

they look good on the car. The front is perfect. The rear one is a bit larger than on the concept car from what I can tell but still looks good.

Thanks!

Sadly the only reference we had were the photos of the concept car, no real measurements.

I have them already. I figured what the hell when I bought them. After first installing them I was really unsure, they are quite a shocking change. After a week though, I loved them.

My wheels do look unduly black there, they are actually anthracite. Just a case of excessive brake dust and an owner who rarely cleans his car.

I don't mind having twins in the slightest, and APEX is an excellent choice.
