Today I finally got my carbon Tamon wing.
The quality is great! I wouldn't have expected anything less. It even comes with double sided tape. The fitment is probably a 9/10 because there is a slight gap on the top corners, but that could be because the J's Racing trunk has a slightly different shape opposed to the OEM trunk. The carbon weave is perfect and similair to the weave of trunk. It would have been perfect if the carbon lined up with the carbon of my trunk, but hey you can't have it all I guess and I really don't mind. I'm really happy with this wing it was well worth the money I think.
Went out to take a couple of pictures in the sun from a few different angles.
My carbon frontlip is still on it's way. The box where my lip was in got lost in Japan. After a week of seacrching they finally found it, so it should arrive in 1 or 2 weeks.

Around 2 months, but I could have gotten it 2 weeks earlier I think, because shipping didn't go as smooth. I was supposed to get the wing and lip at the same time, but then the lip got lost and because it was in a different container the Tamon spoiler stayed in the UK for a week. There was also a big storm here, so that delayed it even more. 2 months is alright I guess. I'm a fairly patient guy. In the past I had to wait 7 months for J's Racing parts that I ordered from. The company Jdmautoparts.nl that supplied my wing are usually pretty fast and they can get any part you need.
Tnx, me too! This is exactly what I had invisioned. The only thing I would still like is a carbon Challenge single exhaust cap with a custom hole for the rear fog light. I think that would pretty much "finish" the rear end. The next thing on the list is to repaint the whole car. I'm thinking of a lighter shade of black, so the carbon kinda blends in with rest of the car. I'm still not 100% sure though. We'll see what happens. I'm might just go neon yellow lol.

Yes, yours looks amazing like that. Bermuda Blue is definetly in my top 5 colors. There are not even a handfull in that color here in the Netherlands. It also looks so damn good in the sun! So who knows.

Today my carbon Aeroworkz lip arrived after a little delay. Could it be the first Aeroworkz lip in Europe? I think so...
I'm more than happy with the end result! This was exactly what I had in mind. I still have enough ground clearance, the design is subtle and not too big. Not sure if I will keep the double canards. The front does looks nice and aggresive like this, but I'm curious how it looks with only one canard on each side.
Here are some pictures from different angles so you have a good idea how it looks. Sorry for the bright photos. The sun was very low. I'll do a photoshoot later this month with a professional.

Today I installed facelift headlights on my car. They are not mine, but belong to a friend. I can use them until he gets a S2K for himself.
I like them, but I think the prefacelift headlights suit the car slightly better.
