Christmas came early! IND parts galore!!

Hey guys, so last night I was able to install all of the IND parts I ordered:

- front reflectors
- rear reflectors
- side fins
- gloss black powder coated exhaust tips
- carbon fiber shift knob with tri stitch boot
- carbon fiber ebrake handle with tri stitch boot
- Gloss black M3 badge

I am an install novice but was able to do everything myself with ease thanks to IND's great videos online. The quality of the products are second to none. Everything looks oem and very high quality.

I couldn't be happier!! IND is a great company who really has top notch customer service. Even when things don't go right, they still are awesome and quick to respond.

Looks awesome man! It's not for everyone but I've always been a huge fan of blacked out cars. How hard were the exhaust tips to do? I've read conflicting comments about how hard it is.

To be honest..I'm a mechanical NOOB, so was super nervous about this. I did just like the threads say.

Sprayed WD40 around back side of all 4 tips
Took back of hammer and placed a towel over it
Then used rubber hammer and beat the crap out of it.
Typically 2-3 good taps and it would come off, then you just remove them by hand

Easy peasy! I still have the OEM tips, and when I turn in the lease, will just put those back on and sell these!

Thank you guys! Today I was pulling into a parking lot and a Hellcat Challenger let me in, then as I waved to thank him, he pointed at my car and gave me a thumbs up. I smiled and gave him a big thumbs up back!
