I like the yellow wheels. I would add some more yellow somewhere on the body of the vehicle, but I like obnoxious looking cars.

I wonder if the FK8 actually has better aerodynamics than the FL5?

for me, that sound became more noticeable when I changed my intake to PRL. I believe its because the stock tube between the air filter and the engine is corrugated plastic and that reduces the noise.

I also did it without using an electronic tool to put it in maintenance mode. I just unhooked the caliper and turned it manually. No issues.

I replaced my OEM pads with Hawk 5.0. I didn't notice any major change in performance. I did notice all noise is gone and a HUGE reduction in dust.

I can only speak for my experiences with the wing. I do not have aftermarket mudflaps so I don't know how they would do. thanks. :)

I've taken mine through many car washes and never had an issue with the wing.

I switched from OEM to Hawk 5.0 pads and got less noise, less dust without any noticeable performance change. but the hardest driving I do is autocross.

is there a plastic scale model kit? I haven't done an exhaustive search, but I haven't been able to find one.

if its just a light coat of dust, they make dusters for cars. I have one, but I haven't used it much.

Are you looking to prevent it? That would require changing the aerodynamics of the car, right?

I'm confused. you said you couldn't fathom why someone would go to a dealership for maintenance, but then shared a story of a time when you did. So you CAN fathom why, because you did... recently. You should have just shared your own personal experience instead of pretending like you knew...

I can answer for myself. My previous car was a Honda Fit. I had always had good service at the dealership. plus it was a convenient location, I could bring it in and they would shuttle me in to my office. so when I bought my CTR that was my logical starting point for maintenance. I have...

you asking about the stock type R wheels? Can they even be wrapped?

Did you disable the alarm systems?

I guess I should have mentioned, I'm on stock wheels and suspension.

Has anybody taken their Type R on the Amtrak Auto Train? I see they recommend disabling the alarm system. Is there a fuse to pull for that? any other thoughts or experiences?

I think you need to ask yourself why you bought a Type R in the first place. If those reasons have changed and an electric car fits your current requirements for a car, then do it. But a model 3 (unless its the Performance) isn't really in the same category. I've seen a lot of the...

I was at the Taco Bell drive through a couple nights ago and the kids working there went nuts. lol. I love it.

I put a tank of 87 in mine once. (station only had 87 and I was almost "E") Nothing happened. No knock, no CEL. But I didn't give it the beans or anything either. I wouldn't do this regularly. Only if there's no other option. I carry around a bottle of octane boost incase I'm faced...
