    The wing on the 06 looks very nice, I wonder if I should put an R56 one my 07?

    Thought about washing Scooter today, but I will do it after the C&C on Saturday AM. It is not that dirty, the mag chloride matches the DS on the boot!

    The Gen 2 version is very similar and looks very nice. I'd just go with it.

    Got new shoes for it. Took it for a test drive and I am happy to say that superchargerectomy + many other things was a complete success! Man it is good being back in an R53!!!

    Went Motoring to Whistler with stops at Porteau Cove and Lions Bay. The weather was awful, but I got some nice scenery and the drive was fun.

    Except this happened and I didn't notice the damage until I got home.

    There was a big pot hole that jettisoned the back of my car into a concrete barrier. If the barrier wasn't there, the car might have ended up in the ocean.

    It looks like only the tailpipes and the heatshield got bent as the muffler and the rest of the exhaust looks like they are all where they belong.
