At my age Tob, I think my knuckle-busting days are behind me and considering how important this task is, I'd rather have a knowledgeable mechanic handle it. Meanwhile, could you post a link for the M6 bolts? My searches are only turning up boxes not onezies and twozies? TIA.

You do most excellent work, Tob and thanks from all of us. Mine hasn't developed a leak yet but I do worry about it. Only have a QJ so this wouldn't be a particularly easy job on my back. So here's the question. Could a person buy all the necessary parts, fluid, etc., and have Ford do the swap...

Whaddaya bet, Tob that most GTD buyers opted out of the CF caps? <BSEG> I wonder if they're part of the BIG CF package or whether those individual CF pieces are parted out.

Yep, I do as they fit better and hopefully, as you say, minimize the ripping. By the way, I'm curious about "sukhoi," anything to do with Russian aircraft?

James: I used Carpro ReTyre.

They showed up yesterday and thanks again for the Hayward Purple tip, they're just right. Next chore is to see how well they hold up while detailing.

Appreciate the info, guys. Decided to try @sukhoi_584th's suggestion of hayward purple. I'll letcha know.

I think I've tried a half dozen boxes of nitrile gloves over the years and haven't been happy with any of them EXCEPT the handful I grabbed at the doc's office awhile back. <chuckling> As for the store bought "detailing" gloves, some are too large, some fit alright but are a pain to put on and...

While I don't use it on the Mustang or the wife's Caddy, I do use 303 on the truck's vinyl bed cover and the trim. Great product.

Looks great, Mark. After cleaning my tires properly, Ghost gave me a much better result. I don't know yet whether or not I will stick with it but obviously, this is a worthwhile product.

Ditto but in my case, it was the rear shipping blocks. The wife and I both kept saying, "This car rides like an empty truck!" Only took about 800 miles. <laughing>

Well done, Tob..the vent looks great. I think just the vent is enough CF to add to the stock vehicle, love mine from Terrance.

My CFTP was 4010 from the factory with less than half a tank of fuel.

True that, Jaime but in reality, we haven't even scratched the surface with AI. As it happens, the wife's birthday was last month and I ginned up an "AI Birthday Card" for her. Gave Gemini 3/Nano Banana these three images from within Photoshop along with a good number of "commands" and pretty...

Aye, Aye, SIR! <BSEG>

Sure doesn't seem possible that it's been six years since we were all uber excited about deliveries. And poor Earl had his hands full keeping track of all the cars. Good times. No desire here for power upgrades but good luck with yours, Tob. Meanwhile, I'm considering picking up an extended...

Without a doubt..AI. Well done, Jaime and if we weren't all hyper tuned to "see" an AI comp, we didn't notice that your avatar has the same background, and we didn't know you, we might actually have been fooled. <BSEG>

Tommy: For what you're getting, (clay bar and coating,) you could do it yourself for less than $200. Applying a ceramic coating is relatively easy with hardly any gotchas. Where the big money enters the picture is when polishing is part of the equation. That's the labor-intensive part, not...

Interesting eye deer, Mark and one that I may actually try..thanks.

Second that emotion. You'd have to park her in a cool, dark, place, covered and never wash or drive her to get ten years. I also highly recommend at least a single polishing paint correcting step before the coating. You won't believe how much better it will look. Claybar just gets the...
