The wood floor looks so nice!!! Can you elaborate a little more on building it?

Once I get some time I will write up a how to, but basically you build a frame, trace your trunk out with foam board (dollar stores stuff works great) then you transfer that to your base board. Then once all that is cut out you start piecing in the floor 1 piece at a time. I did it all out side of the trunk then would test fit a few sections at a time.

I like them they are performing well, but I'm not sold.on the pads yet, I'm thinking about swapping them out to something else. I'm getting a good bit of brakedust. Might go with some oem cerimanc pads or ebc pads but the rotors were well worth the money.

Thats good to hear! The company is local here in Toronto so I'll try to pick them up from their warehouse.

How did you install the front lip? just drill into the bumper and just secure a nut onto the other end?

use the supplied screws and just install them into the bumper and lip. no need to drill since they make there own holes.
