If Flatbread is packed, we can go to Bamboo. I've been there once. Sushi was pretty good.

Time and Date: Would Saturday, February 22nd @ 12 work for everyone? Weather permitting of course

I'll create a thread if the date sounds decent.

I'm down

Hey, anyone have a link to the cf wing that sticks on and is semi high(at the best price)? I can't decide if I should paint it or not...I want to...but it might accent the front cf lip, cf sideskirts(soon to be purchased), etc.

Just to make sure, that's a rep. The OEM one is closer to the 450-500 range.

Yup thanks! to paint or not to paint...

SLOWER · 02-24-2014, 12:29 PM

I really liked Tom's not being painted. With your dark paint, I think it would look good either way.

dwells · 02-24-2014, 12:35 PM

I'm a big fan of the partially painted look where the top is painted to blend with the trunk, but the rear is exposed carbon fiber like so:

I originally bought a replica when I purchased mine, and decided to sell it and spend extra for the oem

The replica will be wavy and the weave pattern will not be as consistent. With this part having such high visibility, these flaws would have driven me crazy

zero2sixtyZ · 02-24-2014, 01:23 PM

+1 for the OEM. islandroad did the switch himself too. Rep to OEM. Definitely notice a difference.

How I spent my Sunday, just hangin out.

Hadley · 02-24-2014, 01:26 PM

How the hell did you take that picture? Haha

Torgus · 02-24-2014, 01:38 PM

If you paint the rep there is no difference right? Or are their physical differences between them. The rep I saw looked fine to me...

Fully painted you might as well buy a plastic rep instead of the carbon fiber one. Fitment is good from what I've seen.

My buddy Shshank took the shot. He decided to sit in the back and creep.

You can definitely tell. The lines are cleaner on the OEM. islandroad83 went from painted rep to OEM fairly recently.

The surface itself isn't as smooth as the oem version. You will definitely be able to tell the difference

Torgus · 03-04-2014, 05:04 PM

Next meet or whatever someone remind me to bring my extra spark plug sockets. I have two extra, 1st come 1st serve(free). Or if anyone needs them earlier just PM me.

So whats the deal with a lil mini coding meet? Speaking of how fast is it to code a car I assume pretty quick?

335xiRacer · 03-08-2014, 06:55 AM

Got around to installing my catless downpipes and now I can hear my wastegate rattle pretty bad. Wish I knew while I had the downpipes off....

Would you have tried adjusting them with them off? You can still do one from the top right?

downpipes are nice, adds a good deal to the exhaust. What tune are you running?

in other news...more fucking snow. lucky us.

335xiRacer · 03-10-2014, 12:42 PM

Right now im on a cobb stage 2+fmic sport. Will be getting tuned by Bren in the coming months.

I tried to adjust the rear one today. Its where all of it is coming from. The 10mm nut is rusted and not really a 10mm nut anymore. So im not sure what Im going to do.
