> yeah, mtech-2 spoiler 😃 and yes it’s cardinal w/ sport seats (heated, and working, at that). they’re a LITTLE rough (small tear on the psgr bolster) but the backs are freaking MINT and I’m probably going to get them recovered in a year or two when they really need it.

lol…You haven’t seen a rough cardinal interior until you’ve seen mine.

exactly the opposite - going mtech2 for ONLY the lower pieces (front and rear) and keeping the OEM plastic bumpers w/ Euro black trim - I didn’t like how the mtech rear bumper is an over-fit and how they both lose the black trim, as I was planning to run the black side trim (you can’t get the mtech2 sides anymore).
