now that you are bringing your shinies together its inspiring me to do so as well.

You mean that piece is still sitting in your dresser drawer ! ! ! Funny thing is you can only see the very top of it any way. Glad you found the leake (even though you tripple checked the couplers) LOL I had a popped hose on my boost sensor and swore it was on there ... double tripple looked at it. A friend of mine reached in there and moved the hose....it was off. Tought me a lesson not to just look but give it a check physically. I originally wasn't going to polish pieces on my car, was thinking about powder coating (Jet hot) but our motors just look so impressive when they're buffed up. I don't know if you can use the Ebay hard pipes with the M2 CAI but if you can there a whole lot cheaper than the M2 hard pipes and mine actually look better than Tom's M2. Just search my thread for polishing or PM when your ready. Jack

I am filling the void left by Mark Koch is how I look at it. Hope it works out, I got a lot of great people supporting me and I am not looking to let down. Thanx - Jason
Funny you mention Mark. I believe that I am the proud owner of a set of his door handles (exterior). I'd love to get all my interior done but for all the CF to be laid properly I'd have to send it all in. (don't want the weave of say the ash tray to be different from the console, you want it to look like one matt from gauge cluster to shifter console and that's not an easy task) requires quite a bit of attention to detail. I've done some FG work and it can be really frustrating when you being carefull with the layout and a piece of the weave moves....even more critical with your process since you aren't painting over the final product.

Jack, yes sir that is what its all about. Weave match. It is the most critical part. I think I have it down. You will be able to tell once the pictorial is done on Monday. I will then put it all back in with the AC relocated and three Defi D gauge Black faces in the ac location. It should show everyone my true capabilities. Jack I can match those handles. Yeah it is extremely beneficial to have it all done at once, unless you use a plain weave which is just like the MS cluster or the Spirit R cluster. It has a multidirectional weave pattern can be meshed much better without catching the eye. The 2 twill is what Mark used and I use. It is unidirectional and very finicky about alignment. Looks absolutely awesome though. Just wait for the pictures, I have the weave going southwest to northeast on all pieces. Hope that makes sense.

Let me know if you want me to be your South Eastern model car. ! ! ! I guess my next concern would be UV protction. I keep my car covered but it still gets plenty of sun time here in Florida. Let me know when you have a window (period of time) to work me in.
Let me know how and when you want to do your polishing, we'll be working very closely together on these Montego Blue beauties. Jack
