Lmao first thing is paste wax, polish, and buff. It was owned by some kid whose dad owns a car dealership yet he still doesn't know how to wash the damn car...

 

Safety is the number one priority, especially after almost losing my life and losing my Fit (temporarily)

 

How much did the wrap cost you and where is the shop? I live in Raleigh NC and there are a lot of good shops but they're all $$$$. Tempted to do it myself, wrap is like $600 for 12"x25yd so idk...

 

It was 2500. That's LA pricing though different markets may vary

 

There is carbon fiber wrap on Amazon, 5' x 10' for $30 to do cars with also bigger sheets ( don't know if the stuff you found was solid gold but Ive never seen a small strip like that over $50 )

 

Where in LA? How long did they have the car?

 

Intake came in. Thanks to mr counterfit. I'm still gonna install it with this nasty heat!

 

JB Customs, and for about 1.5 weeks (it was over memorial day weekends so I assume they didn't work that weekend)

 

Captain Fatty in Wilmington does my wraps. His prices are good and he does good work.

My GE8 just got done last week. I'm happy.

 

Sorry, not going to do the search, this seems a little spammy to be posting on the 2nd gen forum for new sales in 2017. Reported.

 

Yes!!! SwanswayGroup, eat a Schwanz!

 

Thanks for the referral! Sounds like I need to visit the beach, see some friends, have some beers... And get the car wrapped

Dankfest was alright, cars were sick but management were assholes. Almost got ejected for two stepping one time... wow. I'll post a link to the vlog when I upload it, and I'll post some new pics of the IS in a sec

 

Glad you're having fun with the new whip. 1st step...restore those headlights. 2nd step...update the camera date haha.

Been a week since I drove the Fit. Been driving my Aunts BMW while shes out of the country until august and a friends Audi A4 avant that he's selling soon.

 

BMW are nice to drive. But I would NEVER want to own one.

 

super expensive for parts and repairs, one reason I stayed away from BMW

 

Both Valid points or concerns. Its a 2010 328i convertible, white with red leather interior. Only 42k miles. If and when the Aunt decides to sell it, the GF wants it.

The refined ride and sportiness is just extremely nice, even with the Audi A4 quattro wagon. Hard to compare though to the Fit since the Fit is 1/3 the cost and will run for 200k miles easily. Shes a realtor though, so having a "nice" car is kind of part of the gig. Ain't gonna lie, i'm considering the Audi to replace the Fit.

Fit is a more "raw" driving experience since you feel everything. Audi handles as well as my modified Fit, with just the koni yellows/S-line springs. Fit might roll a hair less.

Not to mention I can have a regular conversation in the Audi (with the sunroof open) unlike the Fit where you have to talk fairly loud with the windows all closed.

Who knows...just enjoying the refined "grown up" cars.

 

I have no problems with conversations in my Fit. Not sure what's different about our cars. Road noise is definitely not a factor in my car.

 

Ok, maybe I exaggerate a little. I can have a conversation with my passenger, with the windows up and radio down. Granted when its jus tme I'm jamming out to the stereo anyways

But I can practically whisper in the Audi/BMW and all passengers would hear me.

 

I know these feels.

Except I'm 11 and want a CTR real bad.

 

I'm Deaf with Cochlear Implants, Having a conversation in my Fit with my 7 yo isn't an issue ? Its a lot quieter than my Jeep Renegade or Dodge Ram I had.. hmmm
