What did you do to your Emira today?

I got it washed and the ppf touched up last night. Odo is at 280 right now. I also got in some infill paint so Im going to paint the shift pattern in tonight or tomorrow. Gotta get some miles in this weekend.
 
Have the carbon front lip painted in gloss black to match the rest of the car. Also trimmed the edges of the lip to have the same curvature as the weel arches.

Just published this video of the custom steering wheel install. If you're looking for steering perfection for your Emira or any sports car, you might like this.
 
Mods are definitely a slippery slope. Mine has been pretty minor compared to my Evora

With a dark car (Verdant green) Full PPF was a must
Barkes a bit too dirty and grabby. Hawk brake pads is the fix
I want to see that shifter mechanism. Floating console looks nice
Car not daily driven. Battery voltage tracker.
Exhaust is nice but could be better. GRP downpipe with Milltek valve controller was and easy fix
Annoying touch sensitive steering wheel controls. Gotta get me some of the proper buttons

other than that, it is good;)
I'm right there with you with pretty much every item on that list... and similarly, this is me "being good" compared to the past 😆
 
So today decided to remove wheels and Adams Cermaic coat them and while doing that noticed all A Arms are
turning white oxadation and pitting some .. So took small Stainless steel wire brush and clean them and I ceramic coated
all suspension components...I think next time I will use Eastwoods Patina clear on all components..
Looks new again under there...

Plus whatever else looks interesting, based upon future Forum advice. My sincere thanks to members and Forum sponsors, for the great suggestions and, in some cases, invaluable install directions.
