You know..... like "Rim" Earl....

Hence my response lol

This is a different grammatical situation

[Earl]

I also meant it as Roberts joke humored me so much that it was actually shortening my life, not a figure of speech

And in that case, literally is the correct term

Anyone know where to find this radio-to-gauge deal? Struggling to search right now.

[Earl]

Buy a sheet of ABS plastic and create it, buy a factory radio blank and drill holes, or get a hold of the guy who makes them on Bimmerforums=)

Just make it out of sheet metal. You'll be upset when you pay good money for one and find out that's all it is.

I will be making a vent delete panel for my dash like the one below. I will just be using sheet metal like TJ mentioned.

I had made one for my center vents, then sold it with some stuff. I then needed one again, and I bought one of the laser cut ones. My suggestions is to make one. I am constantly annoyed by the one I bought, it sucks compared to what I made lol.

Did anyone play Forza Horizon 3 yet? I ordered it last night on Amazon.

Rave reviews but I have not

Bought a new (refurbished) computer recently. Looks like if I spent $150 on a graphics card I'd be able to play some modern games on it. I see my old wheel is supported by project cars...  too bad cross-platform gaming doesn't appear to be a real thing. Seems like the x-box is more popular around here...

[HipMF]

supposedly the physic are more realistic in rfactor/iracing, which I'll also be looking into. Will definitely be doing some kind of video game/sim racing this winter if anyone's down for some competition

[HipMF]

I've read or  heard the term "Alien" before, but couldn't imagine anyone that fits the bill more than this guy. Fast as fuck, super quiet and as weird as they come. Obviously a promotional video, but still pretty impressive.

I have project cars but haven't even gotten into the career or anything yet. Got to drive with a Oculus too thanks to a friend, the VR was a lot of fun.

One of my Service Managers sent this to me.  Yes, that is a brake rotor and yes, it came off with the caliper that way.  The customer said the noise went away so they thought it got better...

Impressive!

[KaiserRolls]

**customer declined new rotors
