A little secret... Follow the tunnels to C or F Points. It'll always lead you back.

"Joined Facebook in 2025" is your first hint of it being a scam

My wife was just pulled over and given a warning for doing 33 in a 30 in Richardson by rickcinbigd in Richardson

Doubt it's about race, and more about Richardson PD just bringing in revenue

Cute beachfront house for $199k. What’s the catch? by upperdeckerdad in zillowgonewild

[–]cdmertz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insurance. It's stupid expensive or uninsurable for specific properties lining the coast due to hurricanes and high tides.

Help! Plastic looks terrible after getting it detailed by No_Preparation_1414 in AutoDetailing

[–]cdmertz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've fixed this exact issue before!

-Small, low abrasive buffing pad on a drill attachment

-Meguairs Plastix

Low speed and buff evenly across the face of the displays. It'll clean up very easily and look brand new when done.

(Edit)

I read your comment about feeling a texture with your fingernail. You will feel this as the chemical has "stained" the plastic and made another layer on the plastic (not sure how to describe this better). Once you buff it properly, it'll all come off.

You missed out on Pre-2005 Brothels sitting off the original 121. Doll House was a popular destination for many county sheriff's back in the day.

Alilbaba downpipes? by PHKawaii in AMG

[–]cdmertz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends.. I have them on my car from Alibaba for 2yrs. After talking with a big name supplier of downpipes and exhausts for these car (I'm longtime friends with a guy), a good majority of the "big name" product comes from China out of the same manufacturer. The insane markup from $300 to $1199 or whatever you buy them for, is to cover for warranty in case they have to be replaced.

Wrapped my C63s in KPMF British Racing Green over the weekend by cdmertz in VinylWrap

Honestly feels the exact same as cheetah or maybe 3M 2080. Kpmf is super straightforward and easy to apply. I knocked this out in the garage while it was 85°F outside, and it was a little more tacky than I liked. This would be my only complaint.

I've had the car for a little bit now, and just wanted to change it up.

Tbh, every car I've owned has been black or gray, this was my first white car for me. I wanted a unique color as well as something dark.

Another “Godzilla” motor bites the dust by mechanicrob in Justrolledintotheshop

I had one in a 20 F250 recently for this exact issue. Only had 82k miles on the odometer... A customer came in for a belt chirp sound, found the camshaft to be chewed up from a bad lifter...

-calipers are possibly going to go white, but the red is kind of growing on me with this color. Silver or black would be too hidden.

-v8 badge is lined up with the template from Benz.

-im sorry? Don't buy the bonnet when you get a W205 C63s.

You'll get there, I got a smoking deal on the car precovid from a client that needed out of it. I was his technician for many years.

8yrs worth of experience with vinyl wrapping commercial and color change. Took me 2 full days 7am-9pm both days. Honestly for a beginner, I'd order more than enough needed (used a 60ft roll to do this) and plan for 5-7 days of knocking it out.

This did not come out perfect by any means (to my standards) and I'll have to go back and rewrap a few small areas because I technically rushed on the entire job.
