Car finally made it into my garage after spending January at the detail shop. Big shout out to Renee at Ultimate Auto Protection. Pro photos coming soon. For now….New Vossen wheels will be installed next week.

Wow great spec !!! Curious as to whether the 5VM kit and high wing was from factory and if not, where did you source it from ? I already know about all the aftermarket offerings, just curious which one you went with if not factory. The shine really stands out from the ceramic coat !!

Thanks. The High Wing is OEM but not optioned. It came with the low spoiler. The 5vm was aftermarket from ACS Composites.

The thing I don't get about ACS, everyone seems to default to them, but their stuff is so expensive for what it is. I am looking to do exposed carbon fibre, their high wing is over $9K, and $6500 for the front and sides. I made a list of all the companies out there who offer this stuff, and ACS is one of the most expensive. I wish it was the opposite as they are right here in my home town. To put things into perspective, when factoring in the front, sides and high wing in CF, ACS is about $15K and the others around $4500-$6000 CAD (after converting), and yes even if you throw in shipping from the US, and some customs, still comes out cheaper. I guess I will have to see what to do when the time comes. Have my eye on Racing Sports Concepts and AGM Motorsports.

Yep they aren’t cheap., but after seeing their stuff it is likely worth it. ACS is definitely quality.
