Looks like Vishall and I will be having a daytime photo session this weekend, so post your requests and we'll get it done. Thanks.

My car had the same issue before it was fully activated. You have to call them and confirm it.

Bmms,

Damn, my car is doing the same crap...."teleaid defective! Vist Workshop!". What's the module you're talking about? Maybe you can get a part number? Because then I can just call the dealer and have them order that part. That way, they can replace it the same day....and I don't have to make a second trip to have it done.

Nice car Bmms8. The daytime pics will be much better. These pics were mostly underexposed. Still good to see the car. I thought you got the sports package though so I was surprised to see the burl trim. Enjoy!

You owe me a lot of money, lol. Everything I've told you costs money in the real world.

I told you Zaino looks great. Six hours huh? You'll get faster and better in time.

The car looks incredible, bmms8! I was wondering how long it took for the job; thanks for posting that info. I've ordered the products, but it may take a while to get here. What about the claying? I understand that you spray small sections with Z7 and then just glide the clay along that section. It's not a scrubbing or pressure thing. Is this how it works?

Again, an absolutely beautiful job!
