Guess what Santa delivered to the house today...Why a nice new CF airbox for the C63!
Installing it as we speak. I can't wait to take the beast out and see how she feels after the latest mod.
Merry Christmas to all!

You need to remove the 6 metal clips that hold the front cover from the original and put them on the CF unit. It is tough to get them off without damaging them. I ended up making a tool out of some sheet metal I had laying around that helped. A screwdriver tends to bend them and flatten the litle teeth that grip into the cover. Mine seem to hold pretty tight in the CF cover, but I did realign the teeth with a small needle nose pliers after removal and before installing on the new cover.

Thanks Barry!
I'm currently at the Sheraton in Abu Dhabi but will be switching over to the Embassy (where the film "The Kingdom" was partially taped, the palace portion) in the next few days.
It's a beautiful country, and we're right on the sea. Unfortuantely (or fortunately) we work 16-18hrs a day. Not complaining, we're doing some amazing cars (X6s, GTRs, Scuderria, LP640s, Gallardo 560s, Veyron, GT2s, AMGs of all types, and Nissan/Infiniti and Lexus/Toyotas).
I get to personally drop off the TRD blown and MHP tuned Lexus LX570 of the high sheik of Abu Dhabi tom--hd camcorder will be rolling lol. I saw the palace from the outside for the past 2 days on the way from the hotel to the shop. Honestly, I've traveled quite a bit but have never seen anything like it. It's larger than most museums I've seen, more on par with a NFL or MLB stadium in terms of overall size sq footage. Unbelievable.
There's a shopping mall in Dubai which has indoor skiing with real snow and ski lifts.
Also a 2600ft sky scraper, from tne top of which you can see the curvature of the earth.
Good call on the tea, it is quite good here as is the hummous.
I'll post a ton of vids (before/after tuning racing, etc) when I get home.
Take Care and good talking with you again!

The hummous is insanely good here, as is the tea w/ milk (I typically drink a lot of white/green tea w/ splenda at home which just doesn't compare lol).
This country is GREAT. Every road is 3-4 lanes wide and one way, meaning every stoplight is a drag race. LOL, some of the Nissan Patrols are NASTY (we're tuning a few as well). I've honestly never been anywhere with as many car enthusiasts in my life...The amount of modified high performance/exotic cars here is astounding. Just got back in from another ride in a 1250 hp (Built 8.2L LSX with 500 shot, 320/180 2 stage) 08 C6 Z06. The car is absolutely WICKED.
The last two days we spend here we're going to a sand race and then for a ride in the LS7 powered dune buggys. I absolutely cannot wait. It's a motorheads paradise!
Thanks!
Andy
