Purie,

The yellow fogs Looks good on the all black!

Did you buys yours with the brake ducting already installed or did you do that yourself?

Here is my 2012 MCS. I just got her two weeks ago with only 20miles on her. My friend did this and some other pics for me the weekend after I bought her. Her name is Winky.

Nice shot! Did you notice a big difference when you slapped the x-brace on?

Thanks.
I put the x-brace on almost right after I bought the car, so it is hard to say. I recently complemented it with OMP strut tower brace. Overall, the car feels very solid / stiff. It is amazing.

stubby antenna is probably the best thing you could ever do cosmetically =P (in my opinion)

Agreed. It was the first thing I got for my car... Took it away from looking too much like an RC car...

Nice shot! What sort of post-processing did you do?
