MY FLEX NEEDS A BATH!! Drove in heavy rains for part of 3 days in a row. We are back in Naples! Then we get here and have fruit flies - most were dead. What a way to spend my birthday!!!!
Flex had another case of #6 mis-fire... Can't wait to get new plugs in her... At 68K now... Otherwise running good... but mis-fire today felt like a rough road when we were running around 75mph.

What have I done to my EB today? ... Actually, it's somwone else that wasn't careful and open slammed his door on mine in the parking of a shopping mall... Result: a big bump of about two inches long by one inch wide and a bit of paint removed.... Grrrrrr. Not too happy.
Especially that I am supposed to go this week for some colored plastidip test on the car, not a good timing.
Anyways, at least the new paint will cover even if not perfectly repaired.
I am looking forward to that new project.
Probably will be somwthing similar that I had with the black and blue car in terms of theme, but this time red and black... Actually matte metallic red with tuxedo black. All chrome blacked out and OEM 2010 20" wheels painted in tuxedo black... Probably callipers in red.
Interior with digital prosport gauges in red and possibility of ambient lighting in red too... Should look nice... Hopefully all done within the next month. Stay tuned!

Plenty of jerks in parking lots. Man. At least it sounds like you have some very interesting plans. Can't wait to see!

Took my poor baby in to get the headlights straightened out once and for all.

I installed NGK plugs gaped to .30 and then replaced the intake pipe from intercooler to TB with the one with my Methanol spray nozzle. Pump and boost valve etc goes in tomorrow!

Update from dealer: They are having the same trouble that I had with the headlight replacement. There is a conflict where the bulb goes into the lens. The won't fit in because of internal electrical components in the lens. At least now, I don't feel so bad not being able to make it work.
