I hit an armadillo and put a scuff under the factory lip. Was going to have it fixed but I also wanted to add a little more front lip. Bought the 3 peice Paktechz CF and i and very impressed with the quality however, they offer zero installation guidance. My guess is that if it comes off and does damage this protects them.

Im familiar with 3M VHB and see where I can add a few fasteners but wondering if anyone has installed this and what you did. I'm a little leary if using panel bond if it ever needs removal/repair.

Its getting PPF now so I have some time before I install it.

This is sitting on the showroom floor. Brand new marked $215k and the front cover clearly diesnt match. Unacceptable at any level much less this kind of money.

Edit: There is no PPF on this car.

I want an Ice Blue Navi badly but I have an almost 9" wrist and have been hoping for one larger than 41mm. I actually like it better on a bracelet.

Love the simple classy design and thinking of buying one as semi dress watch without being too stuffy if that makes sense.

Love both colors but interested to see what others think.

My buddy got me using this in HS circa 1982ish. Still my absolute favorite. Works great on everything but glass/shiny plastic. Removes dirt from everything lrarher to carpet. The smell brings me back to my youth. Crisp clean but not strong. Almost a hint if leather.

I never see it mentioned or used by anyone I know.

Maybe I'll send them the pic.

Something old, something new.

Quick background, I'm on a well with 900ppm TDS. I jhve a big shop with some nice toys, two of which are black cars. I recently went deep on a RO/DI setup with a 70 gallon holding tank.

RO dropped TDS to 30 and DI to 0.

Today I finally washed the black cars, DI rinse, blew off the excess water and.....DAMN 😳

The cars are glowing. The gloss CTS-V looks better than it ever has. I had washed, DI rinsed and towel dried it a couple times. This was the first time just letting it dry and it literally removed previous water spots. My foam on the RO is THICK like shaving cream. Huge improvement.

I had asked a bunch of questions here so thank you for the advice and encouragement.

Getting up my new 3800 and I have the pre-outs going yo my Russound P125 driving my large main speakers.

Where should I set my R/L Master Volume (back of the Russound ) and front volume control? I'll he running Audessy once I get set up but not sure where to set these on the Russound amplifier.

I've been asking questions here for awhile getting ready for this project. Appreciate all your help. I dont professionally detail but own some nice cars and boats.

Its been a fun project other than too many trips io and down a 16' ladder.

I'm not a plumber but the people at Home Depot must think I am because I've spent way too much time digging through the fitting isle lol. I have a whole bag of wrong fitting to return!

The heart of the setup is the Active 2.3gph pressure washer pump. The difference between washing with it vs my old electric pressure washer is insane. Highly recommend.

My well water after the softener etc still had 900ppm of dissolved solids. Left a film on the cars so I had to use a detail spray after every wash. Now with the RO its 34ppm and the DI rinse water is 0ppm. No need to even dry after washing. It dries completely spot free.

66 gallon holding tank in the rafters fills with RO water and gravity feeds the system but I did have to add a small pump to push water through the DI filters.

If your water isn't terrible you dont need anything this extensive. It'll pay for itself in roughly 328 years. 😆

I am putting this tank in my garage attic to supply RO water to my car wash setup. It will be about 15' above the RO system.

I need to install a mechanical shutoff so when its full the water supply is stopped.

What would be the best type of float valve for a tank like this? Because the flow into the tank will be relatively slow (RO pump) Im almost thinking a toilet type float valve set up on a stand inside the tank.

Before anyone asks, it will have an overflow drain. I want more capacity than a standard horizontal pressure tank. This is 66 gallons.

Ideas and suggestions appreciated.

Looking for a source for an X pipe for my 2020 AMG GT-C Roadster. I find one online and suspect I can buy it better though Ali but can't find a source if anyone can help.
