    I don't know about that! You have a clean setup.

    I would take a reasonable offer.

    Jumper the two wires in the connector.

    They were Depo headlights and I removed the chrome surround from the lowbeams.

    Very nice work! That looks awesome!

    I always hated the way the gray in the engine bay looks on Arctic/Titanium, which is why I resprayed it Arctic with a clear coat. Can't wait to see how an LS3 swap will look in my bay I'd keep the red LS3 covers on it though

    Interesting good or interesting bad...

    OP, great work on the car and I don't know how you could sell something when it has this much blood, sweat, and tears in it!

    Hi, I was curious how much work did you have to put into fitting this CF front lip? Was it a good product and where did you get it from?

    Thanks.

    Haha!! I will probably get another one at some point, LSA swapped though. Driving a CTS-V now, and I love it.

    That engine bay shot is sick! Great work.

    I can't remember who made it, I found it used on Ebay from a local seller. I will do some digging and see if I can find out who made it. The fitment was not perfect by any means, but the weave was quality. There were gaps where it met the bumper on the sides, but it wasn't horrible.

    Nice!!!

    let me know if you need any parts for it, i'm at raceprovenmotorsports

    We actually just put out a custom 5" intake for LSA's that has picked up some huge gains OVER 4.5" intakes. Obviously helps if you have ported blower, snout, 102 tb etc.

    a modded ls-a in this car would be insane.

    Cool, thanks! I am actually done with engine mods for good after my last ethanol tune.

    Okay, just found it. I think it is called a Rieger Infinity lip, and DTM Fiber Werks has a similar one.

    Seems to be a natural transition from BMW to CTS-V. TitaniumSeeker from VA did the same. He is turning in the 10's now and still streetable as a DD...
