    Question for Carbon Fiber Seat Back Owners

    I'm hoping that was a rhetorical question. I would consider that exemplary parenting:_rock

    Anyone get an SD card error when going over bumps?

    You still way ahead of me. I can't get mine to read any SD card I've tried to date, I'm due the retrofit on backup sensor. Wonder if that has anything to do with it

    Need a new wheel

    That sucks but bright side is no damage to your person or car itself. Hopefully wheel/tire insurance. My wife did same years ago on her BMW, spring thaw and huge pothole on highway. Was a line of cars on shoulder of highway that suffered same fate. Replaced wheel and tire also, had insurance...

    Colored circle lines in Tach

    Just pretend for a moment that the car had a 3rd pedal. How and when you shift would depend on your drive. Commute, back roads, open road blast, maybe conservative MPG, or feeling frisky and just want to hear exhaust pops and gurgling under decel. There is no black and white answer. Just enjoy...

    Jacking up your Blackwing

    I have a set of composite race ramps. Got it up high enough to install them. Still less hassle then lining up pinchweld pads every time you want to jack car up . Bigger reason is for whatever reason you may need to bring car anywhere for service, repair, tires, you have piece of mind that some...

    So anybody that may sit back there will be naked shoeless and no jewelry, perfect:cool!:

    Jacking up your Blackwing

    Yes, just make sure pinchwelds are bottomed into pad. I dabbed RTV over ends of set screws where they contact pinchweld after anti-seized threads of set screws. They won't go anywhere. I've driven off with magnetic pads and they stayed let alone screwed on pads.

    Question for Carbon Fiber Seat Back Owners

    Friend of mine's son-in-law has a BMW and has spent thousands of dollars on carbon fiber parts for his car and the parts started the turn a milky white whether it was not or had poor clear coating. But it looks horrible now and it wasn't like he bought cheap eBay stuff. Makes me want to just get...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Very small footprint. Only reason I still have them is the V-emblem on them. Figured I'd put them to good use at some point 🤔

    TPMS Accuracy

    I'm usually within a pound. My gauges show tenths, if I check sensors with my TPMS tool also shows tenths. System must round up or down to nearest pound for dash display.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    I'm not a fan of rubber/all weather mats. They just seem cheap looking. I usually upgrade with Lloyd's deep pile mats but of course they don't have the coverage. I've softened my opinion after getting my 5 with Cadillac floor and trunk mats. They are extremely Heavy and do not slip, slide, or...

    Question for Carbon Fiber Seat Back Owners

    I wish I had your problem 🤤 With age comes the wisdom to err on side of precaution. Wife's usually hop in back seat and bags, jewelry or shoes tapping, scraping or contacting seat backs in anyway, 😱 I've had to buff scuffing off top of my saddlebags on numerous occasions and had to wet sand and...

    I'm surprised that they weren't accommodating to your needs. Damn shame no attention to customer service anymore.

    Hardwired Radar Detector

    I have two older Valentine One's. I unfortunately can no longer update and must cough up to purchase newer version. Even updating older ones cost about $100 less than just new purchase. 2 units with 2-3 updates got pricey. I've learned to live without but I haven't really done many long...
