Maybe window tint?

Not as hideous as that Saab.... but pretty dang close.

I am no longer sorry for Justin Beaver.

The Delta Evos are fucking awesome. There was one around hete last year. Probably imported on the 15 year exemption that bring in our Skylines and such. Meanest looking box ever.

I don't know what caused it since there was no one in front of me and I don't recall seeing anyone on the side of the road doing yard work. It seems as if it was ricocheted off the inside of the mirror, since there are two scuff marks there. Not big or deep in the plastic, but noticeable from inside the car. It hit the glass and left 3 very small chips in the glass. Normally, I wouldn't mind, but since the glass is tinted, it sticks out like a sore thumb because of it. Here's a pic of what I mean:

They aren't deep at all and no fracture cracks lead off them. Just a small layer removed. When I was looking for the source of the sound (yes it made that typical gun shot sound when it happened) I glanced over it multiple times thinking it was a dirt stain or something.

Is this something that can be filled in? I know it won't ever be perfect, but at least make it less noticeable.

I feel like doing where's Waldo game... Where is the chip?

Note 2.

Look up for an explanation of what happened. I might try that. Waiting to hear back from someone.

Well I can make it there for 9-10.

Do you need a low profile jack/jack stands or anything else?

I don't think so but can't hurt to have the option.

its pretty schrodinger of q tips that they re neither clean or dirty while it is in your ear, no matter how long it is in your ear.

Took my car to http://www.automobiliaautosalon.com/ today to have Xpel paint protection film applied to my entire front end.

12k miles resulted in enough rock chips that it was necessary. I WISH I'd done it right off the bat. At the same time I had tints done and in the first 5 minutes of my drive home I caught myself trying to roll the window down about 10 times. .....3 long days

I also had them wrap my mirror caps and fender inserts in 3m di-noc carbon fiber. The mirrors look amazing and the inserts are going to look sweet as well.

The opposed piston logo is going to have a border of the firestorm red to make it pop.
