Define giving him legitimacy. What, putting their flag next to ours and meeting with him grants him some special powers? No it doesn’t. He’s a turd and his country is a shit hole, nothing there changes. The view of him by his people isn’t going to change. They are starving and most are living below the life of my dogs and the outdoor cats roaming the streets of any US City. Like them seeing him on stage is going to impact their lives for the better.....it’s not and they know it. Who gives a shit what his people think of him anyway. The alternative is you have a guy backed into a corner and he knows there are only three choices.....stay in the hole you’re in and starve, fight and likely die before anything you fire hits their targets - no win for anyone, or come to the table. Bringing him to the table and offering him nothing but what we have already and insisting he kisses ass isn’t going to do anything to move the matter forward. If we want him to take control and make a move weather it’s war or not, then we can sit back and do nothing. That’s been the policy for pretty much decades and it’s done nothing to move things forward. TIme for a change. Does it really matter? It’s not like we need to continue to flex muscles and show off. That time is over. The next move is either forward to take real action and light the place up. My guess is if he dicks around, then the US Will deliver a throat punch and then offer another opportunity to step up or get put down. Trump and his team are actually doing something vs holding their dicks and playing games. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Had our Farm Sink replaced as the finish on the Jute/Concrete one just wasn't holding up. For a $1300 sink that's handmade by a the team at Native Trails, one would think they can get this shit right. 3 sinks and no-go, they all started to fail. Thus we were given the upgrade to a Nickle Plated Copper Sink that was made to the same exact size we spec'd in originally (not a stock size). I wish we could have kept the bone white but we'll enjoy it just the same. http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167642158/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167642157/original.jpg

Anyone want a dual pulley SUPER Clean S4 that runs 11's? https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/inventorylisting/viewDetailsFilterViewInventoryListing.action?sourceContext=carGurusHomePage_false_0&entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity=d30&entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity2=&zip=43231#listing=209990116_isFeatured Sent from my Galaxy Note 8 using Tapatalk

haha! I wouldn't say mine is a Baby Godzilla yet. Downpipes and an AMS Tune and it for sure would be. I've seen several that are at 480hp & 500/550tq with just pipes and a tune. That's more in line with what I was used to with a Dual Pulley set upon my Audi...not quite that high torque wise but she moved out for sure. The RS moves but not off the line like the Dual Pulley set up did. for sure the motor really wants to run. Being a lease I'm not going to do a flash tune so I'm good with what she is for now. Surprises lots for sure. She's on-par to a little better than my S4 when it was at Stage II. I think she runs better up top than the S4 did at Stage II.

Wait for mine, it's a lease

I've seen an older guy with white hair in a red one around Sawmill. He didn't want to play. Probably just an old dude driving a car not a real car enthusiast.

So a fellow Audizine member picked up a super nice 2013 S4 in Misano Red with the two-tone Black and Magma Napa interior. The car overall was in good shape but it was filled with light swirls preventing the pearl in the paint from jumping out as it should. In reviewing the car and the packages we determined that my Option 2 Premium Enhancement Package would suffice. I did recommend he go for one of the best ceramic packages out there as I knew he would appreciate the candy-like glow it would bring and honestly once he saw how both my wife's SUV and my car shed water and after going through the storms on Friday looked nearly just cleaned he said to go for it. What he brought to me: Wasn't horrible but it was swirl city as seen easily by the condition of the B-Pillars: http://www.pbase.com/image/167626105/original.jpg The wheels weren't far off in terms of care. Griot's HD Wheel Cleaner is great stuff and has an Iron Remover built in thus it will turn purple as it dissolves brake dust and other ferrous metals embedded in the clear. Plans are to do a full wheels-off detail on them once he puts on his new summer wheels he's currently shopping for now. http://www.pbase.com/image/167626102/original.jpg Overall the paint wasn't too bad in terms of Ferrous Materials in the paint. Mainly on the back bumper area thanks to the nature of the airflow and exhaust. http://www.pbase.com/image/167626103/original.jpg In the end, I REALLY love this color and the condition of the car overall. Dare I say nearly as clean as mine was. Here she is wearing three layers of Gyeon Coatings. 2 Layers of Mohs 9H level hard coat topped with a SUPER Hydrophobic top-coat called Skin. http://www.pbase.com/image/167626098/original.jpg Pictures and even video do not do this color justice. Granted I was lazy and didn't break out my DSLR Gear but overall, if you've seen this color in person, you will appreciate the Red Mirror and slight pearl tone it presents. http://www.pbase.com/image/167626096/original.jpg It's hard to believe this car is 5 years old http://www.pbase.com/image/167626094/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626101/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626095/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626097/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626092/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626107/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626093/original.jpg Remember those nasty swirled out B-Pillars........gone! http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626104/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626099/original.jpg Gratuitous shot of my Q50 next to his http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167626100/original.jpg

Have you checked with the property manager? I'm sure they use people that are on the cheap. Otherwise, most are going to work on a higher per sq ft fee.

You will have PM Soon.

As a follow up for those interested in entry level coatings like the one I mentioned here, I've put together a short video showing the crazy good hydrophobic property it brings. Yes, I stripped off the Cquartz / Gliss on mine and put on a basic coating to show the impact and will be testing it out further as time goes on. The gloss is outstanding and the dirt resistance and self cleaning properties so far have been great too. It's a perfect offering for my basic Clean and Protect offering on daily drivers. Here are a couple photos of my car with Gyeon CanCoat: http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167600670/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595666/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595667/original.jpg Now onto the video: Starts off showing impressive contact angle and water beading. Then at :53 begins showing the hydrophobic property and water sheeting. ffwd to 2:30 to see more intensive water sheeting. Enjoy!

I was behind a guy in it with a dealer tag rolling down 161 from Linworth to Sawmill, etc. Asian Guy. Likely test driving it as the plate was in the window. Wanted to play but he only goosed it a few times.

unfortunately I'm not set up to do it efficiently. However, once it's up and running, we can set something up for sure. Thank you sir!

Detailing is fun and the changes an be dramatic but they don't always have to be "intensive" and involve full corrections on garage queens or our favorite toys. Basic details can turn mom's daily driver or the vehicle you're about to sell into a whole new animal for not much coin. If you're interested in having a daily driver, basic vehicle or one you're looking to sell spruced up so there's a remarkable transformation in it's own right performed on it, shoot me a PM or text (see signature). Even the Basic Clean and Protect details are fun to see come to life! Option 1: Basic Clean & Protect Detail The Basic Clean and Protect Detail adds shine and seasonal protection using an industry leading hybrid sealant known for its durability and cleaning capability. This detail option is perfect to keep your paint looking clean and shine nicely while reducing the day to day scuffs from the paint finish. It is not a paint correction package but it in many cases it will greatly reduce the appearance of swirls and scratches. Especially ones from improper washing and drying techniques. Recommended for: This service is recommended between full correction services to maintain a layer of protection on your vehicle. It is also a terrific option for the value-conscious that want their daily drivers cleaned up, lightly polished and fully protected against the elements. It’s also a great used-car prep for those looking to put their vehicles up for sale. No doubt you’ll recoup the costs of the service and then-some. What’s Included: Strong cleaning and decontamination of exterior including both a chemical and physical decontamination of all surfaces, including glass, for a clean and smooth surface free from fallout and light tar/tree sap. Next all surfaces, including glass, are sealed with their respective industry leading hybrid synthetic sealants** applied by machine and buffed clean with soft premium microfiber. This delivers the durability power of synthetic sealants and the depth and glow of a natural wax providing seasonal-long protection and a mild corrective action lessening the visibility of swirls and scratches. Lastly tires and trim are dressed and protected. ** Upgrade the sealant to a SUPER Hydrophobic SiO2 Based Ceramic Coating by Gyeon that has a 6-12 month durability for only $50 more too! Contact me via PM, Text or email (see signature) for pricing related to a specific vehicle and other services you may be interested in. I also do Headlight Restoration, Trim Restoration, Ozone treatments and more. Thanks for the continued support CR!

Do that but my offer still stands. I'm working from home all week. Just text me.

http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167600861/original.jpg Thanks! Cars like this are actually fun as the owner doesn't expect perfection but the turn around is dramatic. It's actually very clean. Just dingy. By that I mean instead of Tan it's Tan with what looks like 11 years of dust/dirt on it. Should clean up really nice without too much effort. Steam and extraction go together well. Key is to start from the headliner down as dirt will roll south :lolguy:

So the UPS Guy who visits my home nearly every day thanks to Amazon decided to take me up on my suggestion to get his daily done. Needless to say I didn't realize until he brought it by how bad of a daily it was. 2007 with over 245k miles on it. He does Uber with it and wanted the outside cleaned up but not perfected. Option 2 got rid of 100% of the swirls but the Random Imperfections, Defects & Scratches aka RIDS remain. Honestly it's not worth paying to remove them given the cars overall condition as a daily that's 11 years old. He needs to save that money and upgrade/replace the mis-matched and nearly bald tires ASAP. In the end he just picked it up and was very very pleased. Before the windows were so chalky that the wipers seemed to just smear the water not wipe it. The paint was oxidized and spotted to no end. Now it's a shiny black Uber Ride that will no offend anyone if they are picked up. Vehicle was sealed up with a basic 12 month Ceramic Coating to aid in it's self cleaning properties given he never washes it but will now take it through touchless washes primarily. The interior is next but that's in a couple weeks when I have an opening to get it done. Thankfully it's just dingy and not down right pigged out. Here are a couple Before Shots: http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595547/original.jpg Paint shown here on the hood was spotted and nasty. http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595549/original.jpg Dec klid and nearly every panel was just loaded with scratches. http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595551/original.jpg She cleaned up nicely though http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595552/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595553/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595556/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595554/original.jpg Reflection of my garage door and wall in the roof towards the rear window http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595559/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595557/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/167595558/original.jpg

You win this thread. :thumbup:

Pricing aside, this is one hot Mustang. I'll take mine in that purple color. Welcome to 2018 where 800+hp and $100k is now the norm.

Thanks. Agree that especially in summer it's tough. Wouldn't even show under my "ugly lights" aka halogens. Had to do a test spot and then pull it out in the sun. Once dialed-in just repeat and double check. Sent from my Galaxy Note 8 using Tapatalk
