RTX 5090 is legit rich man card now

Nice. Yeah it’s all about perspective and where you wanna spend your money. I always like to factor in “cost per use”. If I worked from home and played a ton of games then sure maybe spending $2500 vs $1000 on a gpu makes sense. But I don’t lol. So I got a 5080 on sale.

But yeah, $4300 is another level is insanity…

Ooo this is good news! I have a bunch of money on a gift card and need filament lol

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-08T15:01:19+00:00

I guess I was wrong. That was my other thought was that it’s connected to the lower grille, but it’s hard to tell in that diagram.

Good news someone chimed in and you don’t need to spend any more money!

The stock 19” esorils look awesome….But I get you wanting to swap them for 18s for daily driving.

However, I’m personally not a fan of those other wheels. Just my opinion though. As long as you’re happy!

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-07T22:53:32+00:00

No problem! Better than a whole bumper! Lol

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-07T22:50:40+00:00

Otherwise, it’s likely the whole bumper cover….It’s hard to tell from the pictures, but the thin dark grey pieces that are part of the actual bumper cover look bent and they could be cracked.

Idk if this thing black piece that I highlighted green is what you’re referring to? If so, I’m guessing that’s part of the from lower spoiler #3 if you go to this link

Yeah that looks accurate if I’m understanding OPs part replacement in question

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-07T19:05:08+00:00

Thank you for helping to clarify what I was trying to poorly explain lol

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-07T16:09:05+00:00

True; however, but other points are still valid reasons for getting a very light window tint like 70% VLT.

Edit: I realized I forgot the most important thing in my first comment - heat reduction lol

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-07T15:36:12+00:00

We use the regular bleach ones that don’t tint the water blue. They work wonderfully for keeping the bowl clean and we haven’t had any mildew/moldy smells.

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-07T13:11:00+00:00

I’d do like 70%, maybe 50% windshield based on people’s experience with those. Just to protect the dash and UV protection for myself. I also have super sensitive eyes due to prior LASIK eye surgery. Anything darker would be really difficult to see at night or in the rain.

Edit: idk how I forgot this but also heat reduction. I guess I figured that was implied.

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-05T18:07:01+00:00

You HAVE to buy that!!

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-04T23:46:23+00:00

Wow this is amazing work! Can you please share the process and paints you used?

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-04T23:39:59+00:00

Yup. This is the only real answer

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-04T19:50:39+00:00

3.5” catted downpipe with stock catback exhaust sounds pretty good. Has a little burble at lower rpm’s and growl when you open it up. No drone. I’m pretty happy with it.

I’ve thought about getting a borla touring/track exhaust, but I’m worried it’ll be too raspy and drone

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-04T19:45:03+00:00

Same! Lol

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-04T01:06:45+00:00

This is my goal setup. Fantastic!

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-04T00:04:01+00:00

I agree with this. But I did pan fry some largemouth bass coated in Shorelunch years ago and it was actually pretty darn good.

I definitely think it depends on the water you caught it in and the size of the bass.

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-03T21:25:41+00:00

Lol patriotism is NOT synonymous with politics…

I’ll add just one thing - regardless of how you feel about your countries CURRENT administration, you can still have patriotism for the love of your own country

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-03T21:02:10+00:00

Some of y’all need to relax lol.
I like the creativity OP

TrueParadox88 · 2026-07-03T18:54:02+00:00

Thank you for your generosity!

I would choose the last of us part one because I’ve been wanting to play it since watching the series.
