    18 GT Fender and Bumper Repair

    Depends on where you live, and the pricing you get from your dealer. The pricing at most of the San Diego county dealers stink, so I usually hit up Tasca (ships from Rhody), White Bear Lake (Minnesota), Mike Brown (Texas), or Sanderson (Arizona) for quotes. I bought new fenders recently for...

    2015 S550 Tire Recommendation needed

    Well, when you say the best tire, it's hard to be the best when everybody has a different tire. If you asked me what the best tire is, I'd say like a Hoosier R7, but that's for racing. If you're looking for a 200 treadwear tire, it's hard to beat something like the Yokohama Advan A052, the...

    New car!

    I'm a fan of the car, and the color, nice choice.

    Good deals from Hertz?

    I wish. I got my BMW 335 from Hertz Rent2Buy like a decade ago and couldn't be happier. I wasn't too concerned with people driving it hard, because I'd only push it that much harder, considering that a good workout. After changing things like the brakes, and the fluids to better quality...

    Hey, I know that car!

    Finally got everything sorted out, the Covid moved a little bit to the left, and got some time to take the Albuquerque Stripper to the track this past weekend. Couldn't be any happier with the results, even got some love from APR. How's about you guys, ever get any features or recognition that...

    Flex Fuel Tunes

    True that, but you're also talking about old cars, the 18+ Mustangs are slightly different. If you look at the integrated gas filler neck, it says flex fuel e0-e15, and don't quote me, but I'd be rather certain that the stock computer would then have something to calculate the ethanol...

    Flex Fuel Tunes

    You need to get yourself a glass vial to help measure your place's actual e85 content. I'm fortunate out here that my local suppliers are always in excess (usually 87-89%, no lower than 84%) and I was using my Flex tune to finish off the 91 that was in there before, because I didn't really have...

    Bought a new car.

    Well since you bought a black one, all you really need is a pack of sharpies.

    Authenticity...

    I'm biased, but the 98 Cobra is also a great ride. Plenty of fun to mod as they changed things over like the exhaust and the fuel system halfway through the run. :fuss:

    Resonator delete

    That said, don't let that prevent you from rocking your car out. Last time I brought my 19 in for some routine maintenance with an aftermarket tow hook on the front, Performance Pack 6 Piston brake upgrade, the FRPP Track Pack, and loads of rubber up and down the side. Tons of excited...

    Authenticity...

    as for Premium Gas, read this for a minute -- https://www.etuners.gr/fuel/ -- tl;dr: in short, America has to be different, so your 98 octane is our 93 octane, your 95 is our 91. Generally speaking, it's added insurance, provided that your car is tuned to utilize it. For instance, if I've got...

    Authenticity...

    Yeah, other than the tail lights, the rest checks out, I guess that's an export thing. Looks great, and has the little things like Cobra on the driver wheel airbag. Kinda cool that Ford loves our Cobra so much, the only Ford emblem you'll see is only on the trunk (and duh, parts) with Mustang...

    Apparently, it doesn't run and drive.
