There is one other potential problem area.
if you ever have any issue with your adaptive speed control sensors, or parking sensors, they could give you some grief, as the PPF will cover over the sensors.
in reality, anyone with a working brain and knowledge of these sensors, will realize that...
Andrew,
in a forced induction car, Ram air does nothing at all. The turbo (or supercharger) will still boost to the same level regardless of how much air is being pushed into the inlet side (unless it’s starved from a pinched inlet.
on non forced induction cars, it helps, because, to a very...
How old is your car? The factory free segment lasts four years. You could be getting close to that.
and the email is likely legit. Those urls are legit. Whoever writes this is likely a junior copy writer.
Nice write up Evan.
thanks for all the trouble (install and write up)
as to the company “developing install instructions“, that and $5-8 will get you a cup of coffee.
the number of times I’ve never received install instructions (that were “coming soon”) is legion.
I still remember a race...
Whether you paid for it or not, I would respectfully request that they flush and change the oil and filter after you show them the specific wording in the manual.
a dealer should never “install” something in your car you did not request.
period
As far as I know, dealers don’t turn in names for people who put deposits down.
they do turn in names for people who buy cars, but that’s for the warranty database. And it doesn’t get collated.
just sounds like the stereotype of a bad car dealer.
which is why, for my entire life, I’d...
As far as I know, those aren’t canards.
if you really stretch it, you might call it a strake.
but honestly, I see zero aerodynamic gain from this piece.
personally, it looks (screams, to me) ricer.
I agree with razor and rock.
to get to zero camber, you would have had to hit something seriously hard, and cause some serious damage,
I track, hit curbs and dragons teeth, and so far zero changes to mine.
(curbs on track, never on the street. Yikes!)
I agree with Phil.
that does not look like CF, both from the fact that CF doesn’t evenly sheer along the weave, adding in that looks lik Fiberglas mat underneath. Doesn’t even look like fiberglass weave/cloth,, but crappy mat.
I’ve been racing for 30 years in fiberglass racers and CF
I use a Stilo which is just around $1000
benefits: easily install Stilos own microphone and speaker (ear pads) kit. So much better than earbuds. (Kit costs extra), I instruct sometimes, so this helps me plug an intercom straight into the helmet.
can also get a hydration tube (i sometimes...
will be interesting to hear if this kind of work is covered in your country.
I cannot even imagine it would be in the US, as careless as many drivers/pedestrians are around other peoples cars Here.
thanks Steve.
although I don’t own a manual one at the moment, I will eventually, so this is good info. Really appreciate it.
now, for the record, why does BMW do this?
is this designed for those who are bad manual shifters? I’ve met more than a few.
Bryan, which strings and camber gear do you use?
I used to use a custome string set up tool for my race cars with a smart camber, so the stings won’t transfer over to the Supra.
any help you give would be appreciated. Thanks.
I was getting ready to affirm the Aztek as the ugliest ever, and then you reminded me of the tesla truck.
technically the OP stated ever made, and that truck is still a proto.
but once it goes into production, yep, ugliest vehicle ever made,
i remember when they unveiled it a couple years...
Agreed.
however, go to a Porsche dealer in the Bay Area and see how much over MSRP they want.
or a Chevrolet dealer for the C8
and no, I am not supporting these dealers tactics by any means. I purchased mine at MSRP last year. And I’ve never paid MSRP in my life.
