K2MDL said: Where do I put a deposit down Mitch? Any ideas? Btw - latest incarnation - spot the differences...   There are others you can't see like full front and rear parking sensors - with no visable parking sensors.... You can't help yourself when there's a Vette on the drive can you Martin? Ribbon sensors behind the bumper I presume. How are you finding them?

Parking sensors? Cadillac User Experience? Chrome Wheels? Placebo aero bits?  No parking sensors were used in the activities pictured. What I would change is more people doing this with their Vettes (I was the only one there).

That's a nice empty track - no parking sensors needed there....  Each to their own chap - I've done the track thing many times and good fun too. The sensors are tape electromagnetic strips glued behind the front and rear fenders. I only fitted them (Thank you Mr Goss!) because for some very odd reason I always misjudge the rear end of the Z. Not parking too close but leaving a mile too much! The front sensors were fitted as I had hoped they may stop me crunching $2k's worth of front splitter. Whilst the rears actually work very well (with a countdown indicator mounted on the mirror), the fronts aren't too good. Not totally convinced about the rear carbon spoiler - any votes yeh or ney?

As long as the weave matches the rest of the carbon on the car then stick with it. As for parking too far away...the trick that works for me (in car parks where I'm reversing up to a wall) is to stop when the U-shape cast by the centre brake light meets the top of the boot - just the right amount of space to still be able to squeeze behind! May not work as well with a manual where you're not riding the brakes...
