I think it's pretty rad!

That is pretty badass!! They had some really cool fabrics back in the day, my favorite was the ///M "Rain". Very cool!!

That was the original plan, but it's too subtle of a design when laid out horizontally on the trim.

I'm pretty happy with the results and it'll be unique at the track.

Arrived super early to an event and ended up at the very front. Currently watching hordes of people walking needlessly close to my car.

Haha, watching only until the train departs for the North Pole in a couple minutes. And yeah people are friggin ridiculous. Wouldn't be surprised to see a scuff in tomorrow's wash

They went in without any fuss, took me a couple hours while taking my time. No explosions yet!

Hahaha, yeah true dat. She is far from garage queen status too. Sure it's like that in any parking lot, just struck me as odd that there's all this space and people literally breathing on it.

Installed my new RKP Sport X pipe today. Running it with stock exhaust. The volume increase is noticeable to me.

No CEL yet; but I'm sure it coming. Doesn't matter because I just received my Tuning cable from BPM today. Will be installing the stage 2 tune soon.

Grabbed a squared set of arc 8's and fresh michelin ps4s, liking the silver on silver look.

Installed a set of LUX H8 Gold angel eyes. I like this look, something different than the usual white. Got them before they raised the price.

irokwrx · 12-05-2021, 07:42 PM

I installed this Blackvue Camera today with LTE. The selling point for me is the live view and uploads to the cloud. I can look at my cameras at any time. I can also talk and hear through the camera like a Ring doorbell. With both front and rear cameras the battery will last about 20 hours. I was coming from a THINKWARE F800 witch I will put in my daily.

Grip Addict · 12-05-2021, 10:35 PM

I went for a drive to dispose oil at Advance Auto.

Can you set it to turn off with the car so it doesn't drain the battery?

One of the items in my photo is for a battery, it runs off the battery and not your car battery. If you don't buy the battery most nice cameras have voltage cut off points so it will cut off at the voltage you choose. I went with the spare battery to not have to deal with that. The car charges the battery as you drive, when you turn the car off the camera runs off the battery. The battery has a USB port you can use that port to power a hotspot if you choose to get a non LTE camera.

sunny · 12-06-2021, 12:02 AM

installed a set of 513M wheels plus Michelins.
planning on lowering soon when I figure out if I want camber kit or not.

Dunno, man! I'm all for happy-clappy coexistence, but bringing a P-car home, is like poking your ///M in the eye with a sharp stick! Enjoy them both. 👍

Idfkman · 12-08-2021, 05:16 PM

Well, I listed the car for sale on FB marketplace this weekend and was promptly greeted by dozens of folks wanting to come see the car. The thought was it's time to step into an f80 and try something new.

Last night I had a very real nightmare of watching someone else driving off with my car.. listing has since been removed.
