Posting this in here because I'm too lazy to make a formal FS post, but does anyone have black Rays lug nuts that they want to trade for a nearly mint blue set?

Picked up a Garmin VIRB 360 cam. Should make for some cool vids on the track. Here's a clip just testing it today. Quality might not be that great because I rendered it from my phone. If you use the YouTube app you can rotate the picture by moving your phone. Otherwise you have to slide the picture with your finger.

I think you have to open it in the app to get the 360 view.

I ran into a guy randomly at our local park who has a new business dip painting plastic here in Sarnia- its a cool process I saw on Wheeler Dealers. They prep the plastic part, then float the pattern on the solution, dip the part under the floating pattern, then draw it up thru the pattern.

Anyone else hear of this process? I'm just thinking it would be a neat process to refinish a centre console, or refinish the aluminum coil cover on our cars.

anyway, just thought i'd throw this out there. He said cost is about $75-$100 per part, give or take for size.

Ya it's been around for awhile. I've seen a bike fairings and helmets done with it. There's a few places in the GTA that do it. You can get some pretty neat graphics done with it. I was going to get one of my scooters wrapped in a wood grain.

Yes that is hydro dip. Hi Darcy, I'm Eric, we met at Stratford. You told me about those Hendy mats I'm looking for.

​​​​​​​I guess I may as well start looking for mats, intake, shift knobs etc. here in the southern Ontario section!
