It took mine a little over 2 months to get repaired... was the other person's fault and they never reported their side of the story so the insurance company couldn't determine who was at fault until 1 month after the incident.

I did nothing with my 8 today. I handed her over to her new owner on Saturday :(

darnellm 08-30-2010 07:33 PM

swapped out the race tires, brake pads and rotors with my street set up.
bled the brakes and oil change with Royal Purple (10w-40)
clay bared and waxed with meguairs nxt.

ZumnRx8 08-30-2010 07:37 PM

went to visit it at my body shop to see how the Vertex Replica/Acosta Motorsports bumper was coming along.... and get a quote on how much to paint my VERT FC Winning Blue :smoker:....:suspect:

How many times a year does your car get the Jedi Zaino treatment lol. Also any new pics of those T5s :aroused::SHOCKED:

Jedi54 08-30-2010 11:31 PM

I used to polish my 8 once a month back when it was my daily driver.
monthly zaino would normally just consist of 2 or 3 coats of Z2/Z5. I usually clay bar once a year before SS

WTBRotary: unfortunately there is no such thing as a "quick" zaino treatment

Rotary-RX8: now a days I zaino it 5 or 6 times a year considering I only drive my 8 on the weekends these days.
No new pics but I'm sure we'll get plenty of pics at GreddyFest this coming Sunday. :cool:

Rotary-RX8 08-30-2010 11:47 PM

Damnn 6 times a year. Thats nuts butt i guess thats what it takes. About the T5s im considering getting them in chrome for my BB. Havent seen too many pics of the chrome on a black car. Im a little worried its gna look too blingy and shiny. I hope its a gun metal chrome.

04rx 08-30-2010 11:54 PM

took out coilovers to re adjust. bolt broke so i left it on stands for the night

MTspeeds1 08-31-2010 12:09 AM

Hmm, tried to find someone who is selling their RB exhaust and drove to work. I walked out a few times to admire its sexiness and then drove it home.

gregs 08-31-2010 12:12 AM

ZumnRx8 08-31-2010 12:17 AM
