Thanks, that's my worry as well..
I am struggling to find a clean design under 6-700 as I can't justify paying more.

Finished up my spark plug and coil swap. Was delayed a day because I noticed this piece was broken. The (plastic, of course) clip had snapped off so it was barely sitting against the turbo intake. I ordered from FCP Euro (like I always do) with free shipping on Thursday at around 11am and it was at my door at 10am this morning.

I connected my new Stanley battery charger/tender, and it’s whirring away. Currently the charger’s telling me battery is at 14.6 V, and about 80%.

Not a big day, but feels good to be doing something positive for my baby

MARKPRIOR · 04-18-2020, 03:08 PM

cleaned the steering wheel and conditioned it with leathercare, tried and completley failed to wrap my gear shifter aluminium surround, what a fiddley job

Junebug85 · 04-19-2020, 02:13 PM

Havy · 04-19-2020, 03:35 PM

spent a couple hours trying to get this poor little guy out from between radiators ...

benacto · 04-20-2020, 02:47 PM

bored being home quarantined.... what else to do besides playing with vinyl on the car. Made some smoked eyelids just to cover at the turn signals, mat black on the vent entrances, and red pins in vents and under headlights.

board57796 · 04-20-2020, 06:00 PM

The vinyl looks great!

Love that aggressive look. Did u pre cut the eyelid vinyl or use knifeless tape?

itzjoker · 04-21-2020, 08:54 AM

That looks sweet! Any pics from further away?

that little bit of lid did make it much more aggressive looking. I've always felt the lights were a little too open on the top.
I searched high and low and can't find a company that make a precut eyelid for the F series M6. So I pretty much had to draw, cut, apply, remove, measure, recut.... 3-4 times and a whole 3 foot roll of tint later to get it where I'm ok with it. I'm a little OCD.

Thanks! I don't have THIS "livery" shot from further away, I'm gonna go shoot some this week. I've been changing it up every few weeks cus I'm bored. But I like this one the most I think.
