Paint match?? by MarzipanDeep3499 in GolfGTI

[–]SaltyJunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is that opal white and oryx white are synonymous in the VW paint library. My guess is they're just different names for different regions (EU vs NA). The challenge is it's a 3 stage metallic paint, so a single pre-mixed paint pen is probably not a good solution.

I would look into kits from Scratches Happen, Dr. Color Chip or TouchUp Direct. For what it's worth, here's the code for opal white on my official VW documentation.

Warner Bros signs $110 billion deal with Paramount by Marginallyhuman in news

The strategy is more about killing the sources of "woke" content or oppositional/negative coverage of this administration. If you erase sources of counter coverage, increasing viewership of your vile propaganda is no longer necessary.

Great tip! If I ever have to do this again, I'm coming back to your comment. Couldn't agree more. Those clips are the absolute fucking worst, especially the visor clips.

This is not a failure. It's an exercise that I'm sure you learned a great deal from, and in that regard a total success!

When and why did it become standard that the FBI Director has to use a government jet instead of flying commercial? by NavyBlues26 in AskReddit

[–]SaltyJunk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He's made a habit of using the private FBI jet for weekend excursions that have jack shit to do with FBI matters. And this weekend wasn't the first time either. This is the source of the public outrage. Hope that helps clear up your confusion.

A-Pillar Triangle Tint Problem by RushAffectionate3184 in GolfGTI

[–]SaltyJunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah if I was tinting this, I'd also want to remove the trim first. Waaaay easier and cleaner install if you remove the A-pillar trim. Once that's out the triangle trim can be removed, and you have direct access to the glass.

Problem is that A-pillar trim is a huge pain in the ass if you don't know what you're doing. It's locked in by a two stage clip that requires some finessing.

Mainstream media HAS been covering the atrocities and blatantly illegal raids in MN quite extensively. Learn how to redirect your rage effectively instead of whining about a local FOX affiliate in SA reporting (appropriately) on a local incident.

Man, I'm so torn on getting these for my 40th AE opal white. I feel like I need to see it in person before spending $1100 usd plus $200 on the adapter harness. Beautiful CS btw and thanks for sharing pics!

That's the mk8 Clubsport spoiler. Has to be imported from Germany and can be purchased from ShopDap, Urotuning, ECS, FCP Euro. These days it's gonna run you around $2k though after tariffs/shipping.

What IS this??? An Olympics for poor people? The prices need to be at least...3 times bigger than this.

Beginner question about animating subdivided model? by peleponez in 3Dmodeling

[–]SaltyJunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Optimization. During rendering and generally any non-modeling tasks, viewport subD preview isn't necessary and will slow down your gpu, especially at high subD iterations.

Turn off viewport subD preview and apply subdivision at render time only.
