What a beautiful part of the world that is! My SO grew up in Switzerland. We have been many times. Would love to drive my incoming G80 over there. Too bad ED is gone....

The CCB rotors look terrific with the infamous/notorious "gold flake" of Dravit!!

PITA cleaning them aside, would you order CCBs again? I am considering despite the $$ and reported delays....

I would definitely order them, again. I didn't have a delay in getting my car delivered. I was 98 days from order to delivery.

Installed the front plate utilizing the Carbonio bracket. Getting stopped three times in ten days (twice in Austin and once in Houston) for no front plate was enough for me.

I completely agree. First time I cleaned them, I wondered what I'd gotten myself into. Now, with the right tools and some practice, they're really not that bad! Blow drying ceramic coated wheels makes the drying step a WHOLE lot easier.

I’m finally getting my supersprint H pipe installed on Monday. Can’t wait to hear how it sounds compared to the videos.

They must pull Florida drivers over 50,000 times a day. Yikes.

Man I feel Your pain!

Got pulled over and wasn't even speeding and he hit me with a fix it ticket for my very light tints at the same time…

I had the Rho Plate which looks shit, let's be honest so removed it.

Then I got the Sto N Sho which is nice because I can put it on the car when parked and if I feel like I don't want it or to take photos it's comes off in 2 seconds

The Sto N Sho doesn't look great but it's a hard one to make look right with the grill.
It's perfect for parking but it's not cool for photos or what ever

Today I bought an M4 convertible and now have to wait a couple weeks for delivery. Guess Xpel will be the first actual thing I do to it. Pretty excited!

So far I haven't been stopped and I live in Virginia and they love tickets here. I haven't had my windows tinted yet but I am determined not to put one on.

Patton 250 - where did you get this????? I love the brace in the F82, and been searching for a solution for the G82. First CF one I have seen to date. Look great by the way, such an improvement and gets rid of the worst part of the car, the OEM brace which comes with the car is finished so badly, or to be correct not finished.
