Alas -- the only Z action today will be washing and then a trop to Pardee's Camera with a buddy to window shop.

I'm trying to decide whether I should wash it today or tomorrow, I do hate driving a dirty car on the weekends though!

Got a couple of 7k hits on the tach when getting on the freeway. Windows down, exhaust shouting "GO!" and a big grin on the guy in the drivers seat.

Got up early, took off the bumper, then the passenger side headlamp assembly, only to find out the damned thing doesn't fit in my oven. FML.

Epic headlamp black out fail.

sounds good. which one did you get?

i have their little 12v driver and it's powerful for such a small drive. ive been using my milwaukee 18v compact driver but the makita 12v can pretty much handle most tasks as long as it's not a long project. and it's small so great for car interior projects.

18V. Might be overkill but it wasn't too expensive so I'm happy.

Not a damn thing today or tomorrow. Post-Hurricane cleaning the backyard and house...I'm freaking tired and still have more to do tomorrow and Monday.

Hey everyone!!! Hope everyone had a great Z day. Put almost 500 miles on the roadster today. Perfect top down day but I am exhausted. We went to watch my daughter play vball at GMU. They won both matches today. I am too exhausted to even read the posts above... I will catch up tomorrow.

So I didn't really get a chance to post at all in depth since I got my exhaust. One thing about it that I'm curious about.

The new Berk units are supposed to be made with adjustable tips. Mine came with tips welded, not adjustable. So did Berk go back after all the complaining about protruding, uneven tips that the owner needs to cut in order to fit properly? Or did I get inventory from the prior batch? Honestly, I don't care, the exhaust sounds amazing and fitment was 100% perfect, tips aren't too tucked and don't stick out too much either.

Just want to quote myself to see if anyone has any comments
