Now, if that panel could be fairly dark-tinted solid glass from edge to edge, look out for me falling over myself to get to the body shop.

I wasn't a huge fan of the wraps either, particularly after I saw a co worker with a faux-carbon fiber wrapped roof but a friend of mine owns a print shop that specializes in car vinyl and he offered to wrap it at cost. I figured for $60 it wouldn't be a huge loss if j didn't like it so I took the leap and I love it.

Re-reading I agree, sorry dude I took it as sarcasm.

Coated my wheels in anticipation for spring. So ready for spring prob the most excited I've been since my 1st spring after I bought the car in March the year I got it.

As cool as all metal knobs look (and feel to some), I personally don't care for the feel or the temp fluctuations of them. I like leather and plastic(s). So I have been experimenting with different shift knobs to try and narrow it down. I went through a few choices then installed a Raceseng Creature. It was a little too big/bulky for my taste and I missed the roundness of a ball type shifter. So yesterday, while leaving the Ture core on, I swapped out the Crea 'cover' to a Orba cover. I am really enjoying the look and more importantly the feel of the Orbature shifter.

Oh, and while I was at it, I also installed one of their Reverse R-Locks. Great combo and setup! Jarrett and his team really do make quality products over at Raceseng!

I might have to swap out my Flossy knob for this one
