    Anyone seen this before? How do I get rid of it?

    You're killing me smalls! I think we are not on the same page. This isn't my first time using a buffer or doing a full paint correction, not even close. I am using the same technique as you in your video. In my mind, I usually use the rule of thumb that I move the buffer 1-2 inches per...

    Anyone seen this before? How do I get rid of it?

    You're right, I watched the first 3 last night. I've never watched a detailing video that described Charles Barkley's golf swing. After 3, I can say no information has been new or surprising, including the fact that we generally use the same products. My question is based from the fact...

    Mother's Synthetic Wax question

    This thread should be in the detailing section. With that being said I use Blackfire Wet Diamond. It is especially good on black paint but has amazing shine on all colors.

    Anyone seen this before? How do I get rid of it?

    No. Not yours specifically but have spent countless hours reading blogs and watching other videos of professional detailers perform paint corrections of all magnitudes. I guess I assumed yours would be similar...

    Anyone seen this before? How do I get rid of it?

    I am running into this same issue. I bought a low mileage one-owner 2008 coupe about 6 weeks ago and the owner had taken abysmal care of the car. I bought it out of state so the pictures looked fine and when I got there, there were surface scratches everywhere and the car was filthy under the...

    Nice upgrade! I've never been a fan of yellow cars but Vipers look good in any color!

    Looking for a used KW Variant 2 Setup - Gen III/IV

    Like the title states, looking for a used KW Coilover setup for my 2008 Coupe. PM me with details if you have a set or know anybody selling! Thanks!

    Throw up pics of your Personalized Viper License Plates

    Should have mentioned, Illinois allows 7 characters max, and the number must be at the end (far right) if it's a mix of letters and numbers. I'll try to spitball with the idea of an S and a Z though. Thanks!

    Throw up pics of your Personalized Viper License Plates

    I was considering a couple for my Gen IV. Keep in mind my initials are ZZ which is pretty rare so i'd like to incorporate it if possible. I thought of these today. Feedback would be good. It seems EVERYTHING is taken in Illinois.

    New coilovers hitting the streets

    Thanks for all the info Steve! Using a shock made specifically for the lowered height seems like a definite improvement over the old Aldan setups. I thought the initial issue with the adjustable Aldans was the seal around the rebound adjustment was blowing out and it was a design flaw, not a...

    How to remove fuel from tank on 2008 viper

    Yeah, last January there was a pretty infamous news story of a Lamborghini Gallardo catching fire outside the Portland Auto Show because of this rule. Somebody decided it would be a good idea to put the car at full throttle in neutral to run the gas down to a quarter tank. There used to be a...

    New coilovers hitting the streets

    Good news! I was hoping someone would chime in with some reviews. Unless I can find some used KW's in the 1500-2k range, I will be ordering a set of these for my Gen IV this month. I don't plan to do much tracking, so as long as they are leak and bounciness free with lowered ride height...

    New coilovers hitting the streets

    On the "lowered ride height setting", what is the nominal amount the shock is setup for being lowered? the same as a lowered Eibach spring setup? What is the lowering range for the adjustments?

    Post up the best pic of your SRT

    Synergy, car looks great! Did you powdercoat your 5-spokes or is that plasti-dip?

    Polishing stripes

    On my '08, I just taped off the edges of the stripes off and buffed the base color. I did a test spot of going over the edge of the stripe and it did show signs of damage so I would stay away from them unless taped off.

    Gen 4 exhaust question

    Do you have a video or sound clip of your car? I've been considering this for my '08 but didn't know if it would drone or tick the neighbors off...

    Track Pack Option

    As for the LED lights, I am referring to the trend of every new trendy car having LED strips of lights on the front and rear of the car. I'm not saying it doesn't look cool, but that wasn't the point. The point is that it is a trend, a trend in which all luxury cars, and now cheaper brands, are...

    Track Pack Option

    Well they added LED lights and electrical nannies to ruin the fun of the Gen V. Those are two I can think of instantly.

    Track Pack Option

    Hyper-black is a fairly common color among wheel enthusiasts. It's well known that it's not actually a "black" wheel so I guess I don't find it misleading, but whoever decided to call it that originally wasn't the brightest... :rolaugh: first thing my wife said to me when buying a black...

    Looks sick! Congrats on getting it back.

    Gen 4 for $40k?

    I told him I would trade him a Bughatti Veyron for the Viper + 10k. Just send me the cash!
