          thanks man! i think it sounds amazing! it's deep and throaty when you get on it. roars at high rpms. i dont find it too loud which i like but loud enough. although vids arent great at capturing the sounds with all the white noise but i'll try and get a quick vid of it for you so you can check it out!

            Small update. Unfortunately CAW couldn't follow through with the bumper (ordered it way back sometime in early January), so I had to go an alternate route to get it.

            Good news though, the other place I ordered my bumper from is coming in tomorrow!! it only took a little over a week to get here so I am happy. Also, I guess everything decided to come in at once. Andrew from ORT called and he's sent out the bags and Bilstein rear struts along with the compressors/airlines and all hardware. They should be scheduled to be at my door on Monday. I also ordered carbon fibre inserts for my side skirts and they're in Canada at the moment cleared customs. Spoke with Mark at Tunerworks as well and the wheels cleared customs and are in Canada too. They will be here next week (May 4th) I have been told.

            skirts, bumper, spoiler will be going in tomorrow at Screamin Paintworks

            STAY TUNED GUYS! TONS OF PICS (AND TEASERS) in these next few days!! i'm super stoked! hope you guys are as excited as i am lol

                          Another update! So around 1:30-1:45pmish UPS came to deliver the bumper! pretty good scheduling on their part. They said 1-5pm...I had to work from home today to make sure I got it today! Anyways here's the pics!

                          UPS truck


                          There she is!


                          as you can tell, i had to do a lot of digging to get to it lol thankfully it was packed nicely!



                          nicely printed onto the bumper!



                          boom! ready to go to the body shop later today to get painted!


                          I spoke to Dave earlier at Screamin Paintworks and he say's it'll prob take 1 to 1.5 weeks (2 weeks max) because they're super busy, Plus I have a few things I'd like to get painted like my side skirts and spoiler. Now waiting upon the bags to arrive! Christmas in April/May Cheers!
