The ebay descriptions say “Minor rock chips and blemishes in the carbon fiber. This item is SOLD AS IS and cannot be returned ” , curious what kind of shape it was in? Thinking of picking one up...

the one I bought looked to be brand new and never installed but I’m not too sure about the other ones they have for sale.

Yesterday I updated to the new OEM clear LED front side markers with the dark borders, and the little triangular wind foilers in the lower front of the door windows to minimize wind buffeting with windows down.
Nice additions.

What are these clear front side markers that you speak of?

The word "abomination" comes to mind.

they have a darker border. Looks great on my white Turbo with Aerosmith in black, and all the exterior black and carbon fiber options. Didn't like it with the orange side markers.
The previous pair I bought in 2016 did not have the dark border/frame around the lens that today's OEM clear side markers do.
And yes my front axle lift is on Up, sitting in my garage.
IMO, the Orange side markers are an obamanation, unless your Turbo is Flaming Orange!

I was having a blast at the NoFlyZone 1/2 mile event yesterday until I joined the blown y-pipe club... It completely blew apart (not just slip off) like a few others have experienced on here. I still managed to crack out a 167.28 mph run prior to this happening which I am more than pleased with for a non-S on stock turbos. Time to plan some Christmas upgrades I guess.

Thanks to @SamboTT@ByDesign for the tune and thanks to Payam @BMS for the quick on-site diagnoses and help.

Very unfortunate, but, sounds like the engine didn't ingest any blown y pipe, so a 'W' all around.

Good speed too.

Yes, after hearing a loud "pop" while going ~170mph I was praying and thankful to confirm that was all that happened.
