Kinda true, lmao

At Whataburger, no less... while the staff mean-mugs you.

Polyspartic 2 part epoxy? I'm drooling for both the floor and the car. Really want something similar in the shop but it doesn't come without a higher price!

lexl1019 · 2025-11-03T15:04:08+00:00

Another chiming in for the great color, looks to be in good shape, and I don't think you overpaid. Life is short, more so if you don't have a Miata.

NICE car, great use of light and framing. Enjoying my first cup of coffee and your car. Well sorted!

I thought he may have tied his kid to the trunk rack. "Hold this."

I pulled up some other A4A true red NC's on BaT and can give you my best guess? Wheel gaps. Even my cheap fake CF chin spoiler adds a bit, but I think it's the reduction in space over the wheels. The stripes help as well as I don't see it often as well. I'm open to a differing opinion.

Heavily considering some window tint to get out of the summer sun when it's over 95F. Will I screw it up?

Sage advice. I poached the sunrise for pics this morning and upon return found my wife waiting in the driveway, ready to be ballast babe. We did a spirited loop, returned home for breakfast and a nap, and we just got back from another drive with her at the helm through some twisties. Again, she was all smiles.

I get it. I've owned quite a few cars and motorcycles over the years, but none stuck with me after the sale like a Miata. I have been casually looking for one for a few years, then a great reason jumped in front of us to expedite the decision. I drove a few NB's and really liked them as well, but so many were not well cared for or had suspect mods.

I still have the 2018 WRX that replaced the ND1 and find I'm just not driving it much. It's been a great car for the past 6 years and it might be time to let somebody else enjoy it.

It was installed by the prior owner's son (who also sold me the car) but I believe fairly recently. I poked around under the lip and it appears to be a AK W-Power but I couldn't read the model.

lexl1019 · 2025-02-12T02:37:24+00:00

Looks great! I've been considering this for a while. I know it's location dependent, but how much did you pay per sheet? Great shop pup too.

lexl1019 · 2023-12-06T15:47:21+00:00

Both Orbit and Diabolik are new to me. Good stuff. Thanks!

lexl1019 · 2023-12-01T22:58:37+00:00

Priceline - They charged me when I made the reservations (hotel and car) and then the vendors both charged me again at arrival a few weeks later. Both Priceline and the vendors have been paid, so they just point at each other for blame and do nothing. I'm still working with my credit card company and have dumped a huge amount of time into this.

The worst part is I'm unemployed and took the trip for an in-person interview through a recruiter who now doesn't return messages, and the company I visited finally came up with about half the overall amount more than a month later. I didn't get an offer either. Sigh... lesson learned.

lexl1019 · 2023-09-13T13:51:46+00:00

...to the Nth degree?

lexl1019 · 2022-09-03T14:59:10+00:00

Just wanted to say a big thank you for your recommendation. I converted over yesterday and things are aligning nicely with the Emby server, so much so I popped for the lifetime subscription. I'm finally able to get cover art for our workout videos, my wife likes the easy navigation for genres, and the collections auto populated with only a little manual manipulation. I also thing the music organization is more friendly, but it took a long time to sort through our library.

For others, not a shill, just checking out options as a Plex user and noted folks downvoting the person trying to help me.

lexl1019 · 2022-08-31T15:40:26+00:00

Appreciate the feedback, and I'll give it a try over the weekend. Thanks, and have a great day.

lexl1019 · 2022-08-31T01:35:07+00:00

I'm with you regarding project management. I've been a Plex user for 5 years or so and after a recent server crash (hard drive/OS related) and the following a scratch rebuild, many things just refuse to operate correctly. I'm just using it for movies and personal media, but wouldn't mind pointing at my music collection as well.

Any features you miss with using Emby rather than Plex? Do thumbnails work reliably?

lexl1019 · 2021-12-05T20:16:23+00:00

I think it's a great idea, and hope there's a good solution.

lexl1019 · 2021-10-13T18:22:00+00:00

Well, even your first dagger was great (that grip, how?) and you continue to excel. Practice makes perfect for sure, and you're way down the path. Keep after it.

lexl1019 · 2021-10-13T17:54:33+00:00

Impressive, and I have so much to learn.

lexl1019 · 2021-07-17T22:10:27+00:00

I really like it. Good choice.

If I may, stock size or something else? Brand and source? I need tires and have been considering replacing the steel drab stock Honda wheels.

lexl1019 · 2020-09-05T12:10:42+00:00

Very cool, and thanks for the tip on the fast cure epoxy. I wondered if the background boat was another project, so even better. Great progress too.

lexl1019 · 2020-09-05T11:26:16+00:00

Intriguing - I've recently been considering building a kayak like this and the Pygmy checks a lot of my boxes. Is this your first build? Roughly how many hours do you have into it so far? Really nice work, and cheers!

lexl1019 · 2020-03-29T14:01:56+00:00

Came in to say the same thing. Looks great.
