Alright, I'm convinced. I'll do the coating my self. Probably going to get the C5 wheel armor and put EXO over it.
You'll love it. I ran out of C5 but it has been great on my old OZ wheels, with Exo over the top of it. So I figured this time, I'll try a CarPro product. Both went on easy and honestly anyone can do it. Make sure you have decent lighting so you can see streaks or high spots but otherwise, get at it :)

more stuff came in today. simple but effective. just wanted to say cuz i’ve seen people say no need for them specially the side mirrors but it makes a lot of difference the extra field of view is always good. still waiting for the rear view to complete the set.

Do you have to remove any to cover it, it looks really nice around the the button area
No you don't have to remove anything to install. But it took a few hours. Just have to be patient when stitching and tucking fabric. The fit isn't perfect especially around the bottom where there's a small gap, but its secure I like the feel of this vs the leather.

Thank, that is great information, I was planning on getting one, my hand is always dirty and some times got cleaning chemicals on my hands, which is not a good thing to the leather steering wheel

What a difference in sound. For $30 ($15 since I’m splitting the set with a friend), very satisfied. Took all of 2 minutes to install.

Highly recommend the swap (whatever actual speaker brand/model you choose)

center speaker?
Yeah the center channel, in the middle of the dash.

Improvement in sound is pretty dramatic. I know ctrmofo recommends the JL audio speaker, and is a better speaker. But this kicker sounds perfectly fine for my needs (max volume I run is like 17-19).

I have a replacement sub coming next week that I’m going to direct swap the stock one with.

I got a speeding ticket today. First ticket in 9yrs, first in CO (last was in CA) guy gave me a break. Clocked me doing 68 in a 55, he was right I was doing 68 lol I cooperated and was honest. Asked me why I was going so fast and I flat out said, I have a heavy foot. He took my license and registration and came back. He said instead of 4 points and 180 bucks he knocked it to 1 point and 80 dollars because I was honest and cooperative. I wasn't gonna try to get out of it, I was speeding. He was nice. Then a few miles up the road a BMW zooms by me and gave me a thumbs up as he weaved through the traffic ahead of me. I'm not even mad hahha I was expecting to get a ticket at some point in this car.

Oh wow, where I am, slow drivers do 70 in a 55 :p Cop won't pull you until you're at like 80+ and you probably have to add weaving into the equation.

Edit: I got my car back from the dealership after returning from a plane ride to and from Seattle (saw 2 CTRs in my 4 days there too). New seat liner, they replaced the upper portion and the foam too I suspect (the seat feels much firmer than I remember) and the master clutch cylinder was also replaced. I'm not sure why I didn't notice this, but the clutch engagement is much smoother going gear to gear (more pronounced in lower gears like 1 -> 2 and 2 -> 3) and the pedal much more springy; most of all no more annoying click noise when I release the clutch pedal.
