The pedals from Gert are great. Looks like the brake pedal is upside down.
Crap, Serious? Hmm, it seems to work well, I might just leave it.

Hey Kirby et al - I just ordered the GT3 front bumper skin and they mentioned something about getting the front lip spoiler as well. I told them I'd hold off for right and look into it. I just looked at your(Kirby's) pics again and I think I see what they are talking about - does it look stupid without and should I just go ahead and get it?? Or is it more of a hassle than anything else because it will just scrape the ground more on steeper inclines???? My car is not lowered by the way............................yet

thanks for any suggestions & can't wait to see what else is in store for ya

You really need the front spoiler lip if you get the GT3 front bumper. It really completes the look and does kind of look weird w/o it. I would worry too much about scraping, but it will happen. I'm surprised you have to buy it seperately, mine came with it?

the car has a very "grown-up" but "kick your ***" look to it, the color choice (wheels) and the suspension mod are just stupendous.

very nicely done sir
