The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) II

I know it's silly, but I want to go outside and open the hood....just for fun!

Can you do me a favor. Close the hood very vert slowly and look through the crack with a flash light. Does the damper touch the plastic covers for the brake master cylinder and battery. Mine touches pretty bad and started leaving a mark on the plastic.

This is what the install on mine looks like

I pride myself in spelling properly. I do occasionally misspell stuff, but only for fun.

No they tell you to mount it there, where the hood is mounted in the first place

lol yea the guys were like " its a performance car, BUT for a performance car, if something breaks on it, you pay the performance price for the parts" lol!

meaning its $$$$$$$$$ to replace and get fixed lol

So I saw the commercial about this sticky-pad-like phone mount on TV the other night....

The clown in the commercial act so stupidly and he stick a dummy phone on the pad and swing it outside the window and yell.. "See.. it won't comes off...!!"

I was like "WTF a scam commercial it is...."

I forgot what brand...

Wed night I went to a local computer store and saw they have one of this on display, I am not sure is it the same brand on the TV the other night but I tried the pad.. and it friggin' sticky...

Since I've been not happy with the OEM Samsung mount....

No harm to try... only $30

So I ordered one online last night.... (would have bought it from the store but they only have dash-mount...

)

Hopefully will receive it soon and I can test it out and post a quick review in here....
