The upper nut thing broke? Did it happen during or after the install? Sketchyness. Never heard of that happening. How are they gonna get to it on your car? They even gonna be able to get your car on the lift?

Yea going to be interesting to see how they fix it, cuz that stud is welded on the other side of the wheel well... I just want it fixed right the first time around. It just sucks not knowing what caused it, whether it was VIP's fault or not. All comes with having a shop install this stuff

That will be an interesting fix to say the least. I would think Infiniti should be able to do it right!
That's why I try to do anything I can myself to my car because then I know what I did and what happened and know the full story.

Lance if you are considering tuning up here, let me know and I'll schedule some time to do it with you, would be nice to have it all setup in time for the Dragon. I just wonder how the elevation and weather will affect the tune, if it will affect it at all

I can't believe that fell off those suction mounts are supposed to be strong enough to pull out dents with! But they can sure take a beating! I was able to do some filiming snowboarding and those little guys are amazing!

If anyone would want to rock one in their car for Saturday I think I could score one or two perhaps. Just let me know!

For the record Lance, the elevation of Hollwood Florida is 9 feet over sea level...Roch is 1,317 feet and Woodbury is 1,063 feet. To put it in perspective tho, St. Paul is 700 feet above sea level, so maybe it won't matter that much????

I did some research and they said that it should only make a difference over 3 to 4k feet. Like moving from FL to Colorado or something, we should be good to do it w/e. I would like to dyno ahead of time just so I know where I'm at
