Wow Fred, congrats! How about some custom Dymags to finish off that CF plantation known as the CGT. Don't forget the little mesh aftermarket grills behind the front wheels so you don't get rocks thrown at your face.

I think for now it's best to keep the stock exhaust and get use to it, and then if you want to change it i would choose Tubi because it's a bit louder than stock but most of all it keeps that unique high rpm engine note of the CGT. On the other hand straight pipes are MUCH louder( a bit too loud in my opinion for road use on high rpm), but most of all they alter a bit the sound of the CGT.

its the same as gemballa except silver crested

one other thing, i changed the center seat cushions on the cgt seats to match the perforation on the steering wheel. and if you need a lead to that i got the best guy in town and he charged $500 for both seats. youll notice on the cgt the seat cushion is so soft its like sitting directly on the carbonfiber, so i had him use a slightly denser foam to give my *** some padding.

let the modding begin. your worse than robert.

I've been in your shoes. Keep the RS and get the CGT (if you can). Best of both worlds!

How much for the green RS. How's the paint? Do the decals come off with no residue? Paint must be perfect.

Fred, Congrats on the CGT. You work hard but you play hard too!! You of all people truly deserve to have your dream car. God only knows you have invested enough already trying to build many... Good luck man, and post em up when you get the opportunity. All the best, Kenny

And you can get an airbag with a silver crest from Carnewal...
