Do you have mud flaps?91lxcoupe said:Nice times David.
I went to the track w/ my setup for the first time also and ran a 12.85 @ 108 w/ a 1.90 60'. This is on 3:27s, 3:73s are going in soon along w/ a trac-loc rebuild b/c only one tire was pulling a majority of the time. I'm running 275-40-17 nitto dr's w/ 16 psi in me and I love em, but they pick up every lil pebble in the road and throws it which I hate. Its also a dialy driver.

Arent the pebbles and rocks that are thrown up by your Nitto's chipping away your paint? On the lower part of the 1/4's?They did mine91lxcoupe said:No, why?

The guy who put them on(previous owner) put them on too high(mud flaps) so it wasnt protecting the very back part of it
Let me know!! (Mud flaps?)LOL,,it would be invisable until I went to the track and thew some melted rubber on it5spd GT said:Hey willys...I think they make a clear little plastic like cover that you can put behind your tires on the back fenders and is pretty much invisible...it might be another option for you to think about...I'll have to look into also when I get the Dr's...
A lot of cars come with them on their hoods/grille area...or people put them on anyways to protect the clearcoat...
Rick 91GT said:3M makes that rock and chip guard that sticks to the paint similar to a sticker, Optically clear. This comes on many factory vehicles, including Porshe, BMW and Mercedes. Be prepared it is expensive, but works very well....
Sounds pretty cool!! Yeah,who sells it?How much is it,,Guesstimate?Rick 91GT said:3M makes that rock and chip guard that sticks to the paint similar to a sticker, Optically clear.

5.0 HOtrain said:I made only 5 runs on my FTI combo before I sold it. Best mph of 108.8 (1320) and this was my best 1/8th.
r/t=.731
60'=2.21 (best I ever got on street tires)
330'=5.875
1/8=8.773
MPH=86.02
I sold to go to a new combo, slightly faster than the old

Rick 91GT said:I work for a 3M Preferred Converter and can check on pricing tomorrowI know the last time I quoted something for a body shop it wasn't cheap. I beleive the cut piece I quoted for a Mercedes rear quarter panel was over $80 a side.
I think some parts stores carry it in 3" wide rolls.
Dude is it just glue that holds it on?Or is it heated?5spd GT said:Ouch...yeah if you can get around to it a pricing would be nice...I was thinking the parts store carried it in little strips or something...
