^What tires? I got caught with my summer setup last night and got stuck in the driveway with less than 2 inches of snow on the ground lol. New winters are getting here tomorrow.

BF Goodrich G-FORCE COMP-2 A/S, never really thought I needed full blown winter tires until last night. I got stuck one time and someone had to give me a push, other than that it wasn't that bad, it was mainly the people around me getting stuck. LSD helped a lot I bet.

Yea it's all in the tires, I'm RWD so a dedicated winter setup is a must for me. A lot of people have no idea how much difference there is between a really good all season tire and a cheap winter tire in the slippery stuff.

Got the fronts tint matched last night

you love them quirky blue supercars

It certainly is that. Other than a guy I know with an Evora S I have never seen another Evora on the road.

Its fun driving around in something you don't see everywhere. Exclusivity is important to me although I do understand that this looks like a silly metric to some people.

I'm the same way, see way too many 911s on the road, its a great car but it's also an incredibly "safe" car

Went to test drive 911s and Caymans yesterday and they had an F Type R on the lot as well, which I am also considering. You had an R right? One of the best soundings cars I have heard, was blown away. Could really pull too. Now really torn between C2S and an F Type R.

we hibernating during winter

[lildave]

Someone asked me how deep the snow was in the pic I posted. It was about a foot. I was going around 80 km/h (50 mph) through that though. I wish I got video. There was snow shooting out about 30 feet on either side. Looked like a snow plow. The truck handled it like a champ. I thought I was missing part of my wheel wells after but unless the same piece ripped out on all four corners it was fine. As a side note anyone looking for decent all season tires for their trucks the General Grabber AT2 are amazing. Even on ice they grip pretty good.

Semi-nice day out today and there hasnt been any salt on our roads yet, so I brought my baby out of hibernation for a quick rip

Yeah dude I had the R, personally had a ton more power than a C2S, however it also felt like a Corvette next to a 911 if you know what I mean. I loved it and the sound cannot be beat any other car I've owned or seen, I will likely buy one back in the future for fun factor. 911's are the safest bet though overall. What model 911? The new 992 is real nice

Just washed it

[Strongelbows]

That's hawt. Is it wrapped in satin pearl?

Satin flip ghost pearl

[Strongelbows]

What's maintenance like on the wrap, as far as cleaning it goes? And how long have you had it/how is it holding up?


Considered a wrap, but figured I'd probably get more longevity and protection from autoflex.

Wash the car every few weeks depending on how dirty it is. Had it since the beginning of May and its still in great shape other than a few spots that probably got hit hard by small rocks on the freeway. From what I read wraps can last 3-5 years, but I'll probably try another color in less than a year

[FreedomPenguin]

I have a new years resolution, I have owned my 2013 Scion tC for almost 7 years (got it in like march 2012) and driven it for 150k miles, I admit I neglected it, never once given it a car wash other than 10k mile dealership oil change when they run it through a car wash afterwards.

So this year I decided to freshen my car up. I really love my car and wanted to bring some joy/pride back to it make it feel new again by doing the following.

-$600 subwoofer
-$500 powdercoated wheels gloss black
-$125 painted spoiler gloss black
-$17 light smoke tail tint
-$50 vinyl wrapping my calipers (going to try anyway, read good things about it)
-$40 vinyl wrap piece of front and back bumper.



My spoiler/wheels arrive tomorrow, vinyl will all arrive later this week. Just excited. It was a pain in the ass to take spoiler off, bolts was fine, but then the damn 3m double sided tape was like cement.

Do I need a special type of 3m tape to put it back on? or any random high strength 3m double sided tape should be fine. it still has bolts 3m is just additional.

-$50 vinyl wrapping my calipers (going to try anyway, read good things about it)

WTF? Will this even work? Wrapping a caliper seems like it would be a pain in the ass itself. Then between the heat and brake dust, wouldn't the wrap get trashed in pretty quick order? I haven't read up on it so if it works, great. Just doesn't seem like a very wrap friendly part.

Theres special wrap just for calipers, 1000* heat. Its easier than taking apart my entire set up, having to get powder, and rebuilt. I have been reading of 4 years people rocking caliper wrapped still looking good. If there is an issue, its install error, not clean enough, peels back from dirt.

I'm gonna try it regardless, I like vinyl wrapping and its something to do. People say takes about 30 minutes a piece. It will have a smooth surface for easier cleaning too.

This is the color / wrap I ordered. Its Avery olympic blue. (I like Avery over 3m) should go well with my silver car, black rims/spoiler/etc blue calipers. I don't have big brake calipers, but they should still look good. not putting a decal label on them or anything.

edit- damn the manager of company just called me and said they don't have any stock and its been discontinued in that color, so he found the next closest thing which is like 90% the same color but a little darker. he's doubling my ordered vinyl and attaching extra black matte. gave me like 90 bucks in wrap for 50 bucks. can do 6 sets of rotors with the amount he just sent me.

Rvinyl is a great company. The district manager actually called me from his cell, told me if I ever have an issue or need a hook up on extra material call him.

dope

[FreedomPenguin]

Car so far, waiting on caliper wraps, bumper wraps, wheel center caps, and 35% tail tint that got lost in mail, Ebay guy gonna send me another one for 50% off, I went half with him. tracking hasn't updated in 8 days.
