Nah. The tint shop was fine. I took it to the most popular place around here who also did my GTI and both R's.

He offers tint only as an add-on for ppf installs but couldn't get to mine because he was "too busy". So I took it to my usual tint place which I'm glad I did.

And it turns out they do ppf now too. I think a lot of shops are getting on the ppf bandwagon and just slapping the stuff on to make a quick buck. Who knows if any of these places do the proper prep work to the paint prior to install.

They are supposed to have some sort of non defeatable speed limit chime now... Eurotrasholes are doing some weird shit... Gasoline particulate filters, rev limiters, non defeatable start stop... speed limiters etc.

fuck that. Is the fucking government going to come replace my starter?

Germany already made those mandatory since 2017, disgust. My neck of the woods wanted to sell electric and plug in hybrids starting 2035.

Yeah, it's really weird on manuals. I think just pushing in the clutch kicks the engine back on in the cars that have it with a manual.

BRZ/GR86 doesn't even have it, thank god.

My 328i had it. I actually think it was less annoying than in an auto because like you said, as soon as you pushed the clutch, it would start. This means you're ready to go by the time you're in gear and bringing the clutch back out. It also wouldn't turn off if you had the clutch depressed, so it would only turn off if sitting at a light or something in neutral versus say sitting at a stop sign waiting to make a left (where I tend to keep the clutch depressed some I'm ready when there's an opening).

That said, fuck that feature. Ever since dealing with two batteries in my , one of which was a pain to change, only lasting three years... nah. It's dumb and extra batteries in the landfill are far worse than the tablespoon of gas used each year that start/stop might potentially save.

And I thought i was bitching about my battery took shit after 2 years of ownershit. Funny thing is, while the 1.5t did come with auto start stop, my 2.0t did not. But still.

Still though … tint/ppf shops are 0/2 so far

0/3 if you count the one who ghosted me and almost made me miss a flight

[D Griff]

Well I went into sport mode every drive which disabled it automatically but it had that as well. The throttle not in sport mode made the manual kind of undriveable. The handful of times I did try it though, it was less annoying than in our Wrongler.

The start stop is the reason why you have 2 piggy back batteries

and I’m very now because replacing that second battery was a big pain in the ass and an extra $150 that feels pretty pointless.

Cupmageddon update. This is a vente starbucks. The lid is making contact with the lower dashboard and my hand hits the cup in first gear. There’s very little clearance between first and the cup. This is probably the biggest cup you could fit but if you notice from the side view, any smaller ones may make contact with the lid that covers the cup holder.

Was in kind of a rush to get to the and it’s very cloudy so I’ll get the dust pics when I get home.

Bruh, ditch the cups in the Beamer! They clearly don’t want you drinking in that thing! Just convert that space to something else!

Dust specks from the ppf

also said to use the app for tire pressure. So 36psi all around right now. Don’t remember what the summer setting was but I’ll change it when they go back on.

I did end up buying this thing but hell no was I paying $76 for this. Direct from ghiiiina for $15. Maybe it’s a knockoff but maybe it’s not. Can’t even use it anyway.

This is not “dust” this is sloppy work. But oh well. It is what it is. I don’t think you’ll get better work out of this guy. He will fix one thing and fuck up another like he did 3 times in a row now.

Roof is protected it’s all that really matters

The rest of the car looks good . I don’t see anything like that on the painted panels. We’ll see how long the roof holds up. He said the ppf doesn't typically stick as well to the clear coat used on carbon fiber panels which is why I had to have it redone. Probably but whatever. He also said he had to pop the roof channels off to get the film all the way down the side that way it doesn’t peel up again.

Another pic just because it looks so much better without the whorange markers.
