The one thing that drives me nuts with the charge cooler cap is it doesnt line up no matter what way you put it on and I see yours is the exact same way

Not a big deal just my OCD and I've talked to a couple other people and they have the same issue

Do you mean the coolant expansion tank cap with the white arrow? It doesn't line up with the yellow arrow. Haha even the stock black cap doesn't line up. I noticed it before it was replaced.

Another thing that drives me nuts with the Weistec oil filter cap, it's upside down and the logo is not even centered. There's nothing you can do about it. Blame it on the design.

Some of you guys who I follow on IG have inspired me...
For those who have used the downstar dress up kit.
Did your mechanics install them?
If you did it yourselves can you please share the torque ratings needed when tightening the bolts?
I can't wait to post my final finished #enginebae in this thread.

Hi,

I did the install myself, but I'm sure other members also did themselves. I know TRYM3 did himself because I got some help from him.

For the torque specs, I've only used the ratings for the Two front bolts on the Carbon Fiber Strut brace. I think it was 26NM or 28NM?, but rest bolts were just hand tighten.
