Morning guys.

Had a very long night and now debating whether or not to actually go in to work. Here are some pics from last night, but I really want to see how it looks in the sun.

Turns out there is a rather large ding where the paint went down and it now shows like a sore thumb. He offered to fix it but since I might be upgrading to a kit at some point, I said fvck it. You can only notice it from just the right angles. Also, the spot under the fog light was missed and I wasn't able to get a pic of it after it was corrected. I'm happy with it for now.

hi mr.gale!

i decided not to get the 2595LTM yesterday cause it does not support ecoRoute (OBD2 monitoring)... so i ran my 1490LTM today in the Z.

it paired up with my droid4 nicely for phone. for my G, i think im going to get the motorola roadster2.

mr.happy- good to hear you're finally done with the ordeal yet again.

you're like a regular now with the wheel repair guy. hahaha

hey pint- that looks good!

the drive in the Z this am was fantastic.

i got cut off by some ricor-fart-racing-car-looking-pos-miata-im-going-to-racing-juu-big-ego-but-still-an-idiot, but didnt bother me. i would not want to be driving that noisy thing on weekends. lol

I think we don't have this in Canada.... Gotta ask Fire to train his ninja Raccoons to set it up..

Mr.kenchan, looks like the Roadster2 is the way to go, speaking of In-Car speakerphone, you may also consider the Blueant S4, I personally don't use speaker phone because I am driving a roadster, but I use a bluetooth headset, and so far I am on my 4th Blueant and they are so far so good, the noise cancellation performance is excellent and I would suggest you look into that too.

GaleForce · 05-19-2012, 02:52 PM

Just checking in. Taking a Break from correcting the Z. I was hoping I could get away with a one step but my PO106FA just isn't enough to meet my standards. Looks like a two step will work. Did a test spot with D300 on a MF cutting pad, followed up with the PO106FA on an Über green pad, this is the

combo.

Have a great day guys, I'll be in the garage if you need me.

Pintsize725 · 05-19-2012, 02:58 PM

Um, anyone know what the best way to get paint off the tips of the exhaust?
