I am planning on putting on the NISMO graphics kit and side skirts on my Superblack roadster. I am putting carbon fiber in the engine bay, and putting on the NISMO carbon fiber shift **** and cover for the e-brake.

Yeah, the roadster forum is a bit slow....

Actually, a large portion of Rhode Island is an Island. LOL
I was born in Newport and lived there for about 6 years. Still go back at least once a year. Good restaurants there!

Wait, one more thing!

Something to ponder for a while...
If a cat always lands on it's feet
and
Toast always lands butter side down
What if you strap some toast to a cat's back butter side up?

A wise man once said and I quote:

If your father was an iron and your mother was an ironing board. How many pancakes does it take to cover a dog house? Six because bicycles dont have any doors.

Mythbusters actually took on this buttered toast thing a couple of weeks ago. Turns out it generally doesn't matter. The difference occurs if when you butter the toast, you create a depression in the bread, which changes the dynamics of how the bread falls.

I knew there was no way a Match-Box car could beat a Viper. Maybe my Team Associated Nitro TC-3 could take it.

Freakin' thing screams!!!

Well here's a good one. I'm figuring out a way to be able to put my nose mask and hood cover back on 'cause since I put on the CF cooling plate cover, I couldn't clip it on any longer at the top. Well, I figured I'd try removing the top clips and just use velcro. That part works, but it creates adt'l thickness and the hood, which most of us probably know is already hard enough to close, was nearly impossible. I didn't think I put any real pressure on it just trying to help it slam shut...but I did. It is very hard to notice, but I have a little bit of an indention in the front and center of the hood! So, trying to do something to protect my hood I damage it. What a bust. So, I just took the hood cover part off and run the nose mask part. Will do the job, and doesn't look so bad, and the hood closes easier. So, just be careful, or extra careful. I thought I was, but I was wrong...sometimes I wonder if the bra is even really worth the hassle. But I guess I don't know what harm it has already prevented, eh? I'm still hoping for one of the Speedlingerie pieces, but that just may not materialize.

Yea my Colgen Bra makes the hood tough to close. I have to drop it from about 2 feet for it to shut. It all has to do with the thickness of the bra.
