Thanks! Rep for that They look so but I think they'll have to wait. I need brake rotors and pads at the moment and probably tires after that

Your welcome. If u can wait and save up I would pick up the Craft Square mirrors! I like the Evo-R but there is a small design flaw in my opinion. There is a little gap in the corner of the mirror base where water may possibly get in. I may be wrong I dont usually drive her in the rain so if it happens I will find out.

Well, being as Z is my DD, that would be a problem. Thanks for the heads up, and please post in here if the problem arises I will have to do a some research, and definitely need to set aside funds if I have to go CraftSquare - the options I want will run over $1K. Unfortunately, that will take some time as there are several items ahead of the mirrors

Thanks. I was a little hesitant myself, but took a chance on them because the carbon fiber is so minimal.

I think I brought back half the wildlife of the Blue Ridge Parkway with me to home. I spent this evening cleaning bugs off the front, and banged out the filters; clearing them of more bugs, twigs, raccoons, and leaves.

Finally getting tinted on Friday!

Drove it briefly yesterday after it sat for about 10days and the clutch felt a little soft. Probably just in my head since it shifted normally and it still sprung to the top like normal. Or maybe my legs bulked up with all the walking I did in Boston

I drove home from work and filled the tank. $90 CAD for 60 some odd liters.

At least I was able to squeeze 350 miles from the last tank.

How bad will my gas mileage be after the supercharger goes in? I'm almost afraid to ask.

It is directly proportionate to the amount of lead in your right foot
