If you need a few projects I could share I also built custom 8' approach ramps for my lift, the 12000 lb lifts have 7" thick runways so to load low cars you need some serious ramp. Ryan
C'mon up! The nice part of this little bendpak- it's flush to the concrete...no ramps!

Very true, that is a nice little service lift. Love the in floor installation.
My tow vehicle is almost 8000 lbs empty so I wanted a one size fits all lift. I know lots of guys prefer 2 post lifts, I specificallly wanted to feel very comfortable working by myself and not just oil changes, I've done engines, transmissions, diffs... If I don't need the vehicle immediately I'll pretty much tackle anything.
Personally, I don't like coatings. You obviously get longer lasting protection, but you don't get the same depth and water beading you get with other options. I'll use Auto Finesse Desire carnuba wax on this car after a correction.
I also don't like clear film. I won't be putting it on my car. If I were going to track the car, I'd be all over. To me it's like putting plastic on your new furniture. Make it look worse, so that you can keep it looking nice.
Good point. After getting some quotes and realizing the huge costs and even worse the time required I figured I would stick with what I know and save the costs on stone chip repair down the line. They quoted me 4-5 days, they would have my new car longer than I. I have used backfire products and am very comfortable with it so I figure I will stick with that.
I've got a similar scissor lift in my garage and it is definitely an amazingly convenient tool to have in the garage. I gets the car up about 71" off the ground which is just enough to walk under. Should be handy when having to drop the GT3 engine out of the car to replace the spark plugs every 10,000 miles for regular maintenance. :P
I dropped my M3 off at PSI in Orlando Tuesday last week to get KW HAS, K&N Filters, and a bunch of cosmetic mods. That day, I had a C2S and a hope of ordering a GT3 at some point. I picked up the M3 today, so it got to meet its little brother today. I'm sorry, but this just makes me smile. I feel like God has blessed me beyond my deserving. I shouldn't care so much about cars, but they drive me (literally).
I'm not sure yet. If I do, it will be a while from now. DynAudio/Audison would be my choice, and I would leave the stock PCM head unit.
Does the stock PCM connect to your cellphone via Bluetooth? There was an early issue with Bluetooth not working without an additional option being included.
