How long did you roughly have to heat it for? I tried doing so but was scared of any airbag sensitivity and gave up too soon

Your car either started life somewhere other than the US, or the rear bumper has been replaced.

Just gently ran it back and forth until it receded - not too long.

I believe it has only been in CA and NJ until now. Carfax is clean but bumper could have been replaced off the books. Where would a bumper without bumperettes come from, Europe? Looks like the C4S has them too.

It's either a euro bumper or previous owner removed/filled and painted the bumper

That Polar Tip sold for $80k. $5k more than it did a couple of years ago.

this is priced pretty fairly, IMO.

$51k, 70k miles or so.

Thought this was @T10Chris at first glance (and considering the location of the car).

I've had several people message me that since it went live so you're not alone

The owner, or previous owner- not sure if it has changed hands since was built, used to be semi-regularly on here and on social media. Haven't heard from him in 3-4 years and as far as I know car has only seen the track once or twice since it was completed

He lives in WA and his avatar was this car in front of an open wheel car I believe, i came across his posts.

I wonder who actually did the tune. It just says a "unique performance tune" in the ad description.

Apparently those are markski billet k16s...hmm
