Not a bad build at all man. Lots work and going the extra length that many wouldn't have gone with. Keep it up.

Yup I'm super happy with the tune, feels like a totally different car. I did upload the last tune last night today is the first day driving it and all I can say kmo43 is your guy if you need tuning

The cut off line on them is beautiful, still need to wire the demon eyes but I'll do that soon enough haha.

Thanks to Riceburner for making them and doing such good quality work, I highly recommend him for your retrofit needs
