Brando, I'm sure you've been asked a thousand times, but if you don't mind repeating this what front chin spoiler is that and is the rear wing an Porsche piece or aftermarket? Car looks great.

Thanks!

Front is the OEM Aero lip.

Wing is the Misha GT2M.

I think the next thing I'm going to do is have the black side skirt pieces painted body color.

B, when you do post up somes pics asap. I'm still on the fence, but cant help but think the car will look lower and sleeker with the sides and rear painted to match. good thoughts....

Hi guys,

I just got a 2005 C4S last week and have a couple of questions I hope someone will kindly answer:

1) Has any of you successfully replaced the CRD 23 unit with a Pioneer AVIC? If so, any info would be appreciated as I am contemplating that mod.

2) After looking as 48 pages of mostly gorgeous fotos, I can't help but wonder why some model years have the oval exhaust and others the siamese twin ones.

I'm coming from a BMW E90 335i and my car is Arctic Silver on black w tip. Bought used with 9.7K miles. Will post pics soon.

Thanks

The regular exhaust is the oval one and the "Siamese" is the sport exhaust.

I think the twin exhaust is just an option found on some C4S configurations or orderable from the factory. I dont think its dependant on pse. Tips are changeable. I think its Fabspeed that now has some very cool twin dual straight pipe tips. I didnt like the "siamese twins" on my car at first, but have grown into them a little bit. welcome aboard.
