yup Trevtec. Same here, the thing I like about Trevtec, IMO he'll give you the price up front, and what items you need. If you want him to get it of course it'll be a little more.

I spotted a Blue IX at Best Buy in Henderson and a Black IX with a CNC Racing decal at Wells Fargo on Silverado Ranch and Bermuda. Anyone on here?

Hey, anyone install aerocatch hood pins? I want to put them on my cf hood when it gets here but i don't want to screw it up. Will a regular hole saw cut through the cf layers easily? Thanks

Also, anyone in vegas with a digital boost gauge? My aem 3.5 bar boost gauge reads 4 in/hg at engine off. Do you think this is correct (since the valley is higher up)? I don't wanna send it out and wait a long *** time to find out its not broken.

I dont have aerocatch but ones just like it... Yea, a dremel type tool will go right through the CF.. thing to worry about though is the angle that your hood is at.. Due to the sloping of the hood, my hood pins come out a bit and don't sit entirely flush with the hood. I could push them down, but it would definitely stress the hood and prolly crack it..

*edit* Can't really tell from this pic.. but sorta.. the very end of them kinda stuck more outwards..
