Since I am looking to buy a house I will not replace it with anything until I have a garage to put it in. No clue what I will want when that time comes, but I can tell you I am looking forward to driving the S2000 on the daily. I just need to get a set of summer wheels/tires and put winter tires on the OEM wheels and I will be good to go.

Also, the gun show is in town this weekend and yesterday I got a great deal on a Springfield Armory 1911 Range Officer. This lousy cell pic does not do it any justice:
hey there mustang! good luck with the partout/sale and getting that dream house. that's a nice looking gun you got there.

Sorry to hear about the scratch on the brake lever... you clearly have some eagle-eye vision thus spot a 3mm scatch..
hey there, mr.alcheng. i just got back from my drive and spot QD'ed. was a great drive. will know later this am how my mic setup did. also my driver's seat is fixed. no more popping/slight shifting while turning.

yah, i found the scratch on the brake lever while i was fixing the driver's seat yesterday. i must have scuffed it with one of my winter jackets that has a zipper on the arm. it's about 3mm x 5mm in length and can be seen only at a certain angle. i massaged it deeeeeply with Griot's leathercare cream and pretty much lost visibility so i will pretend i didn't see it. hahahaha.

So is this the product you use?



I had this is my shopping cart when I realized they have it in a spray and wipe as well.

I'm also going to pick up some clay while I'm at it.

hi mr.alcheng- that's the one. i use it 50/50 mixed with water. it's rich in straight form and ive actually gotten in touch with the designer & owner of Prima and she recommended i use it diluted if i prefer. just pour half into a new bottle and add water. now you gotz 2 bottlez!

i recommend people do this 50/50 app while the car is brand new BEFORE scuffs. it leaves behind a nice slick (yet matte) surface which prevents new scuffs. you can easily remove Nero using rubbing alcohol or RC car motor spray.

yah, mr.happy- i use that for areas that get a lot of wear and the spray for basic cleaning/nourishing. for the cream just get the smallest bottle cause it will last a very long time.

Mr.kenchan... thanks for the tip.. I've been looking for something like this... you know.. most of the products in retail store are very general purpose...

You are the 'San'!!!!

mr.alcheng- if off-the-shelf, you can try Aerospace303. PrimaNero is a direct competitor of that product. you can also dilute aerospace 303 as it's a water based product as well. aerospace303 is a glossier finish than Nero and i prefer matte, so i only use Nero.

Thank you Ken San... I would like a matt finish too... but I will look into both before I pull the trigger...
