Better Solution for an Intake Duct

[razorlab]

Here is some progress pics. These are finished in satin clear. The tabs came out pretty nice.

This looks 90% better than most vendors trash.

Outstanding quality. I'm excited to see the finished product in its entirety.

The immaculate build quality only makes me more nervous about the price

Thats why we need a group buy to get the best deal possible!

There is this option for other peeps looking for a cheap solution 65 dollars. 3D print it urself.

I'm already using the 3d printed one.
Still interested in this option as it looks so much neater.

Stunning work!

Sorry for the delay in updates. I am spending way too much time trying to get the inner duct surface quality acceptable. The goal was to have both the inner and outer surface of the ducts to have a nice smooth finish. Usually only the inner OR outer can be smooth when making carbon parts, but not both at the same time. I thought I would be able to do it using multi piece molds and hand sanding, but it is proving to be too complex.

I think I am going to cut my losses and offer the outside trim in carbon, with the inner duct in durable matte plastic like ASA-CF instead.

Does anyone know the proper process to start a group buy? Do I need get admin or moderator approval?

This sounds like the right way to go.

The smooth surface of plastic is not a bad thing. Sign me up for an early prototype tester. I want to buy one. You come up with a fair price and say when

Add me to the list!

@rwense may have some insight, as he does group buys for his designed parts on this forum.

Possible protool coding solution, though it was on an older car. Will keep digging.

Unplugged the radar, then:
1. Change the FA on CAS, added $544 and removed $541
2. FA_Write on CAS
3. SG_Codieren on KOMBI and DSC

...

All I missed on the first try was coding the LDM as my car is a '05 and has it as a separate module.

Wrote FA on Cas and then did SG_Codieren on Cas, DSC, KOMBI and LDM.

$540 might be a backup option, if available

540 (Cruise Control)
544 (Cruise Control w/ Braking)
If you have 544, you can retrofit to 541 (Active Cruise Control)

It might be possible to use bimmercode instead, for f-series and above. However, their use case was a blocked sensor, not a removed sensor.

ICM -> 3000 DATEN -> C_Umschaltung_ACC_DCC

I think this translates to "toggle acc/dcc". Options are "authorized/supressed".

Additionally, we might be able to turn cruise distance buttons into a speed limiter (for example, cities with speed cameras).
