    Just curious if we can get carbonized to re-post his creations. Last i saw of his creations was the custom rear diffuser, and he mentioned about doing a full under belly.

    I would LOVE to see more of the old work, and anything that has happened since the "great loss of 2010".

    Yep, that was one of the significant losses of the big data dump. I'll add my vote to those hoping to see at least some of the good stuff from his lost thread come back, but I'm sure it was a lot of work to post it up and it's all gone; pics gone from the database, etc.

    I feel really bad about losing all that info. Even dug into Google Cache and the Internet Archives looking for it to no avail.

    Nathan it happens. It happened to myself and a group of friends w/ a local auto forum, on one of ourr own small servers. The CPU temps kept creeping up, and would just shut the machine down. To make everything "easy" we actually used like 6 cans of canned air, held up-side down on the CPU, just so we could "back-up" all the info. After 2 hrs of this, it was backed-up, we were out of canned air, aaaaaaand all the info was corrupted at some point in the transfer.

    We had more then enough pissed off people, but they got over it.





    I just hope carbon comes back and realizes there is quite the following to his work...

    Hi guys, I just bumped into this thread, wow it has been a while! Nothing much has happened on my car since the diffuser exept maybe some dive planes:ihih:.I will try to repost some pics latter next week! Now for the other stuff, if I may post a link here there is a long old thread on the other site that covers the rear seat delete, rearview mirrors, and sunroof delete in details. I still plan to finish the splitter and full flat floor but as usual I got myself in too many projects at once and it will take some time to get there.
    Thanks for the kind words about my work.

    Awesome to see you still active.

    Personally, ive read all the your other posts in detail, so i am more interested your diffuser project, and the future ones.

    Which i had the ability to do half the things you have accomplished with carbon fiber.

    Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I would love to see if carbonized is still around and if he still has photos. Miss seeing your work LG.

    I haven't seen Laurent in a while and his old phone number doesn't work. i'll stop by Champion Audi's race shop and see if they know where he is hiding.
