    But, your very well apply this , that's a good well job , and of course, i respect your choice, and just answer by giving my point of view...;-)

    On mine E38, i recover all the interior wood trim, with Carbon 4D vinyl , and change my gear knob for a carbon one, too...
    Because, i was thinking , that to give a more sport touch , it could be a good material choice, with my color body ( cosmo schwartz ) and interior one ( lavender grau)...

    Blue because my car is Sorrentblau.
    And it is very bright blue when clean in the sun, thats why this kind of blue strip.

    I love it...Nice Roger , for the mean time, I know you`ll change them again soon... video before you do...lol

    Now I tried to do it myself, to stop a rust a little on the inside fender.

    Turbo broke down. I think it's time for a upgrade. Made a deal of E60 530d turbo that has just serviced. Gotta gather the parts to get it in place.

    Not really it's been raining or threatening to all day - guess I have to wait another day to drive it...... After rushing a bit Sat so I could drive it Sun, then this happens. We do need the rain so I better not bitch, roll with the punches I guess.

    I waited....2 days. Lmao. But I did get a check engine light I'll scan it tomorrow see if I have to put the stock maf back on but with my stage 1 tune I can see what a difference it's going to make with the 4.6 and stage MAX
    Edit: I didn't put throttle body on just intake and down pipe and they don't bolt on at all I still have to cut more plastic out to get the pipe lower in the bumper got really crowded with air pump

    The sun finally came out this morning and I got a chance to drive the car - not loud at all maybe a little louder then my old Remus if any. The main thing is no drone and it is quiet in side the car while cruising - if WOT it does come alive. I guess it is safe to say I am happy with it so far and will definitely leave it alone this time for several years anyway....don't know what I would change anyway. I am tired of does exhaust for now on to something else....maybe a new bumper this next winter - I already have some ideas in mind.

    I tried to upload a video from my Iphone (84 meg) up to Photobucket - wouldn't go! I may try the gopro next. I am going to Dallas Thursday but taking the Avay to the body shop to get rear fender repaired....wish I could drive Darth!

    I don't know if the smoothness is because of the mufflers or the new type crossover but yes I do like overall. Maybe could be slightly louder but not now.

    Finally uploaded to Utube for the sound clip.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Zum...ature=youtu.be
