My iPad connects to a Belkin unit which is mounted inside of the cubby behind the gear shifter and plugged into the aux cable and 12v in the armrest, and now my iPad is my headunit (My other cars have built in SD card slots for audio {2009 Mercedes'} so going back to single CD was not a option).

Taran did you wrap the roof yourself? I'm thinking about wrapping a front lip with some 3M CF but not sure how it's going to turn out

My roof isn't wrapped. My hood was and yes I did it myself. Just buy 3m glue promoter and run it along the edges. Other than that it's a simple task. If Chris you don't want to diy call up Mark Wu....

I'll suggest adding a sports wheel or an m3 wheel like I have done to complete the interior... Wouldn't say I would do the same mods as you, but clean car otherwise !
