lsturbointeg's "Black Candy" build thread! (with daily/weekly updates!)

Looks great! Can't wait to see it painted. Are you going to retro fit the parking sensors? Is that easy? Probably just cutting and setting them in place. Might take a bit of time to mark out the exact placements. I like how distinctive its going to be. I'd be interested in more pics as you install. Should be fun to watch it all come together.

Yes, all the grill meshes are included.

I don't have parking sensors so I won't have to worry about that. Love the design of this bumper. I'll probably order the carbon fiber bumper splitters and spray they fit

lsturbointeg · 08-10-2019, 09:48 PM

Carbon fiber mirror caps came in!

lsturbointeg · 08-10-2019, 09:58 PM

Splitters also came in too! Was gonna install this on my current setup but decided to hold off and put it on the new bumper

lsturbointeg · 08-10-2019, 10:08 PM

So here I have the splitters mocked up on the new bumper. I also somewhat installed the mesh grills just to give you guys an idea of what they look like. I'm loving this aggressive setup. The splitters can be adjusted so I'm still playing around with the way it sits from how far forward or back. and how much I want the winglets to protrude from the sides. Any suggestions would be great

BRO...DO YOU EVEN CLAY? Clay bar time! For those who don't know or ever done clay bar can be one of the most beneficial aspects of your paint if you're really looking for that glass look. It removes all the contaminants on your paint that have accumulated throughout the year...shit even years if you don't clay

This is the paint in its purest form. No wax, no sealants.

lsturbointeg · 08-11-2019, 10:54 AM

Can't forget about the wheels too!

lsturbointeg · 08-11-2019, 03:45 PM

Creative juices started flowing so I came up with this diffuser tray based off the PSM design

lsturbointeg · 08-11-2019, 04:28 PM

Back to polishing. Already did CG's V34, V36 and now V38 Optical Grade Final Polish

They are really good quality design. Just hope my retrofit works.

Getting ready for this year's 2019 Woodward Dream Cruise held at Woodward in Michigan. Biggest car event in all of the US. Over a million people as well as cars from all makes and models where manufacturers come together to celebrate the automotive industry. From domestics, imports, classics, muscle, historic, super cars, European...you name it...they got it! Even shit that shouldn't be on the road. It's the event where you don't have to be street legal but you can take it out and show everybody

lsturbointeg · 08-12-2019, 10:04 PM

After a long 4 days got her finally detailed. Full claybar application including the wheels. minor paint correction, full polish, full detail on the wheels and tires, full interior and full detail in the engine
