I went to concours auto salon. It cost me about $350 for the full detail inside and out.

Jay's autodetail. That's where I'll be getting mine. He will polish and optiGUARD (that's the professional grade... optiCOAT is the commercial grade) your car for no more than $500 + tax I believe, whereas most places I spoken to will quote you optiguard for around $250-300 plus polishing (depending how much they need to do) ranging from at least an extra $300 or more.

I did, I got mine done at Jay's AutoDetail. He was fantastic. Cost me a bit over 500 but mine needed a bit of work. You can see the pics of mine here http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21286

I got mine done with Cquartz instead but it would cost just around the same for either i think. Mine needed alot of work since it was swirl city.

Well hit 14800 Miles and Noticed I have Condensation....other than the HPFP and this...The FR-S is still going strong. Bad time for things to start breaking though.

I wouldn't really say things are breaking.

tuckdaddy · 12-18-2012, 11:43 AM

I wouldn't call that breaking either haha hoping parts for the car came in today!

Ocho-Seis · 12-18-2012, 11:49 AM

thats just me generalizing stuff.....I actually don't care about the condensation.

awesome thanks for the advice.

Hotsaucze · 12-19-2012, 01:19 AM

Does anyone know if a track pipe would throw off the O2 sensor in the dash since the Converter is missing? I want this upgrade, but no check engine light.

Speedy000 · 12-19-2012, 02:22 AM

if it doesnt have a cat yea u will have a light. but the anti-fouler trick is the easiest solution for this.

I have midpipe with no cat and no cell as long as primary cat on header is still there you should have no problem
