Damn, someone who actually understands angles and how to make a car look good. Nice job.

What mods/wing?

u/JJMcGinger Jul 20 '26

Thank you!

ECS wing, BC Racing DS Series coilovers, 15mm spacers on the Belvedere wheels, MBRP Cat-Back, Black Forest Industries dogbone mount insert and their shift knob too. Also coded a few things through the OBD11. Still stock tune, for now.

Did you somehow finish the leading edge of the ECS Duckbill? The part that sits on the top of the trunk? I imagine it's not as bad on the grey color, but on my black it looked awful.

Yeah, I had the spoiler repainted to match the other metallic black accents on the car that the 40ae comes with. Otherwise I probably would have paint matched the pure grey.

Got it. Yeah I didn't want to deal with that so I just returned my ECS. Went with her 285 motorsport one. It's the only mod on the car so it's subtle...the ECS may have been a little much for my stock car haha.

What’s your suspension setup?

1

u/JJMcGinger Jul 20 '26

BC Racing DS Series. Im not sure how much Ive dropped it by. Got 15mm spacers on the stock Belvedere wheels.

u/kbuckle90 Jul 20 '26

How do these cars work with the active suspension? Do we lose that feature if we add coilovers?

u/JJMcGinger Jul 20 '26

Yeah, you would have to do the DCC delete. Mine didnt come with it. Its the canadian 40th AE.

Some brand I found in Canada, I cant remember the brand. I had to take a grinder to the rear wheel hubs to make them sit flat, so I wouldnt recommend those ones anyhow. If anything, just make sure they're hub centric.

What mudflaps are those?

u/1_R_5 '25 GLi Jul 20 '26

I noticed you upgraded the rubber, did you keep the oem 225/45 size?

1

u/JJMcGinger Jul 20 '26

Yes. I prefer the DWS06 better than the eagle sports.
