Awesome, thanks!

I guess while I'm here, installed Eibach 1LE prokit springs, CT5 blackwing front brake ducts and a new Raceseng Ashiko shift knob. Overall, happy with the improvements!

Thanks, good to know. Very much appreciated!

Wow that's a beefy shift knob. I don't know what it is, but the stripes on your car look killer. Reminds me of a hugger orange 69. The side skirts, front splitter, and graphics all tie together so well.

Thank you, that was actually the inspiration was the 69 hugger orange Camaros with the white stripes.

The Raceseng Ashiko is beefy but it feels so good in bigger hands (thats what she said) and it's so heavy, it damn near shifts itself, very great upgrade.

Soler ported tb and controller. i like that they offer a stealth version for the PRC

btw, the burrs on the edge of the stock TB lip were pretty atrocious.

This shift knob looks great! I wonder if they make something similar for the automatic.

Replying to my own question: they don't...

That rear bow tie is cool! Does it wire into the tail light? Where can I get one?

What is the downside or hold back to opening a Canadian division with free shipping and fair pricing province/state wide? It’s very frustrating trying to buy a performance/aftermarket part in our communist country of Canada!
