Pics of new mods! CSL's, Side Skirts, Supersprints, GruppeM

Really interested how the foil will look and if it will have any effect whatsoever.
Thanks for the compliments guys,
Here is that gold wrap installed,
It was actually very very difficult to work with, Even though its so thin, it doesn't really "wrap" around anything,
and its incredibly difficult to get smooth,
with the contoured unfinished raw fiber on the inside of the GruppeM intake this was the best I could do,
Will it actually do anything? Who knows,
It is supposed to repel heat, But it is more of a wrap rather than a barrier I'd think, Over last weekend it was quite nice in NJ, Up in the 70's, I did put my hand inside the GruppeM box to feel it and it was warm, Mostly towards the engine side, the fender side was cool to the touch, also the K&N filter was also cool to the touch, I shall test this gold foil again once the weather gets nice,
But anyway if it works then great, if not, then it still looks cool and I like it
Add's a little bit of exotic under the hood!
Also pictured is the new black silicone coupler to replace the blue one
Ok finally! On to pics
and then installed in the engine bay,
It was overcast today so the gold didn't really show up very well on camera, It looked much better in person

Thanks
Not sure if it will do anything but I like it
