You'll be happy with those. I have that kit on my M4 and it's awesome.
Not nickel plated though Mine was an early kit before they offered it. |

Aside from the wide body kit itself and 18x11 wheels, what else is needed to go wide body?

My goal was to fit 315s without any tire poking out of the body work. One day I will go the custom wheel route to run 18x12s with 315s

For the front toe, are you running any toe out? Or just zero? Thinking of running a little toe out. (I only run time attack at a local grass roots track, 1 warm up lap, 2 hot laps, 1 cool down lap for the time attack portion). Figured slight toe out would help heat front tires up (toyo RR) and help with turning since the track is fairly short with good amount of turns. (Avg lap time is only 1:18)

Sub'd and to your YouTube channel. The VIR laps in the video of your first post are 'flyers'. The digital speedo showed 149mph on the back straight after Oak Tree. What final drive differential ratio are you running? The car looks really nicely buttoned down with slow hands at the wheel and early power on well before apex in many corners. Awesome. Well done. I'm sure the car is even better now with the custom H-Depot front splitter aero balancing the rear wing aero loads. Oh what fun it looks like your having.

Working on the new suspension setup. Went with MCS 2-way remote true coilovers. Almost done, need to corner balance the car and take care of the alignment.
Got the canisters mounted yesterday. Untitled by Joey Hutchinson, on Flickr Untitled by Joey Hutchinson, on Flickr Untitled by Joey Hutchinson, on Flickr Dropped the subframe to install a new sway bar Untitled by Joey Hutchinson, on Flickr Changed up the rear diffuser. I lowered it a couple inches and now the exhaust comes out above it instead of through it. Also changed my setup for mounting the back of it. Ignore the damaged rear bumper and terrible wrap. I have a spare but dont have the time to swap it and rewrap it right now Untitled by Joey Hutchinson, on Flickr Untitled by Joey Hutchinson, on Flickr Untitled by Joey Hutchinson, on Flickr

Love the the front splitter you made. Did you notice a difference after installing the splitter diffusers?
Also, does removing the oil cooler hole at the bottom cause any issues? |

I've run my car for the last 3-4 years with no hole for the oil cooler and never had an issue. Ideally you dont want to be dumping air under the car if you can prevent it.

Hopefully that changes this year. Looking at switching to a 74" carbon wing with a larger chord
