Engine cover
The UPS truck made another stop here at the house tonight, I got the engine cover and strut brace delivered from River City Creations (Lupe), got them installed and they look amazing! The pics really don't do them justice. I can hardly wait to get all the other carbon fiber parts delivered for the engine bay. My brake rotors are going to be delivered on Thursday, I will schedule to get them swapped out on Friday. I will take some before and after pics.

River City Creations painted the parts, price depends on the part, give their web site a review. Talk to Lupe, very customer oriented.

Received my AAC side marker lights tonight. I'm not to sure about these since I had them ghost the lights. I think I will have to install them and see what they look like. Also received my harness to control my DRL's, allowing me to control them. I will take some pics later. I have the car scheduled for Saturday morning to get the rotors and pads swapped out, again I will take some pics later.

AAC side markers
Installed the rear side markers since they only took about 5 minutes and yes they look really good, I'm glad now that I went with the ghosting effect!

Bought my ghosted last year at the Fest and has been one of my favorite cosmetic mod.

The ghosted effect is really growing on me, it's not like anybody else right now, but I know more will love it just like I do! I can hardly wait to get my matching mirrors.

Looks great. How was it swapping them out, hard, easy? I'm doing mine tomorrow with Hawk HP+ pads, so if there is anything I should know please share. I bought the exact same rotors, except I got the dimpled and slotted, not fully drilled. What about the caliper bolts, did you just reuse them? Thanks for any advice.
