• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    I found 2 bottles, one with a sprayer, on Amazon that consists of a matte black cleaner and a matte black sealant. I ordered them both and will report once I get a chance to try them, probably not until spring.. Chemical Guys SPI_995_16 Meticulous Matte Detailer and Spray Sealant Chemical Guys...

    F3 Limited windshield comparison - anyone done one?

    Upon the recommendation of RICZ, I had 7Jurock make a custom shield that was wider and had the lip. I can see well over the shield (I am 5'10") and the air goes over the top of my helmet. The lip really works. johnv
