Hahaha, we must have impeccable taste.
There are a couple things I'm changing. Going to matte hood wrap (the carbon one took a crazy beating last winter but saved my hood) and more stickers.
If anyone has a down pipe laying around anywhere let me know.....

Just took off all my badges (Sonic emblem, LT emblem, turbo emblem) and it looks so much cleaner! Doesn't make it any faster though...

Thinking about getting a round sonic head badge 3d printed to replace the rear bowtie....anyone else want one? Likely won't be cheap...but the more we get the cheaper it'll be I reckon.

I took my seats out for the first time. Holy sh*&^%t, those 4 bolts holding the seats in were the most difficult 4 bolts I have ever removed in my life. That is some super-strong cement type threadlocker they used on those bolts. It took me around 2 hours to get the bolts out.
I couldn't figure out how to get the center console out. There are 2 screws near the rear cupholder but I didn't see what else was securing the center console in and I gave up.

What kind of ratchet/wrench did you use? I used a T50 bit with a 3/8 drive, an adapter to 1/2 drive, and a nice breaker bar that I also use for wheel lugs. Came out OK for a 6 year old bolt with thread lock on it. Of course, I did not put them in quite as tight as they were originally - no issue since.
I used a T50 with 3/8 drive ratchet wrench, and I didn't have any breaker bar. I need to add that to my tool cabinet. And, I think I damaged one of my ratchet wrenches, that's how tight the bolt was in. And I tore up 2 of the bolt heads kind of bad. It was a nightmare. When I got the bolts out I used a metric 10-1.5 hex die to extract the leftover threadlocker from the threads, and then lubricated the bolts (Boeshield T-9) and now they go in and out easy.
