Even ECS + UPS not a great deal. I'm a deal hunter too, but for time. Car fixed in 1 day and back to my life is worth some $$. He even warned me its going to be expensive but I said do it right away.

P.S. it looks kind of weird on the pictures for some reason, but in reality it's absolutely awesome!
I can appreciate that it is probably darker than the images make it appear.

Did they add any resonance control or insulation to the interior sunroof panel? Notice any reduction of noise?

biggest reduction of noise was when I replaced sunroof seal, since then it is pretty much silent, no difference if shade is open or closed.

Odd... With the US exchange overnight having practically gone up 20%, some US prices when converted back are actually now higher than Canadian MSRP for parts. Tires too. I've priced things out.

Hey boerboel, where did you do your paint?
Have an M-sport kit I want to paint.
Also considering painting the hood, for obvious reasons.

If you're up to it, I'm also willing to meet for a coffee and get the wagons together.
