    Got ticket for tinted window

    Did some research, as Urhuckleberry mentioned (thanks for being good cop) in CA we cannot have any shade attached to driver and passenger side windows, so cop does not need to measure how dark window tint is, hence whatever BS you heard from tint shop that 75% shading legal in reality BS. If cop...

    Got ticket for tinted window

    Didn't mean to stir up so much commotion on the forum, but I think the tinted windows is a painful topic for lots of us. Let me make it clear, I put the tinted windows on the car for two reasons, it looks good and it protects me from direct sun, especially with Viper visor which you can't move...

I see sooooo many cars with the front tinted windows, regulart Hondas and Toyotas, but no he had to pick out Viper to make a little money on me. Seriously, I can't...

    How to measure exact place on the front bumper for Viper logo?

    Had a front bumper and hood painted, during the process front Viper logo was removed and now needs to be re-attached. How do I measure proper place on the bumper to put label in the right spot?

    Insurance response to my smoked Viper, outraged!

    Yes, ozone treatment is what I hear necessary, however, there is a possible downside to it, same cleaning companies saying that ozone is not so good on leather. Ozone hardens leather which leads to premature wear and tear in the not so distant future.

    Won't go into 3rd under hard acceleration- HELP Please

    I have the same issue, I installed polyurfn tranny mount and it didn't help much, I hear that I need to install engine poly mounts to make this issue go away. However, for now when I am at race track I am taking it a little slower to change from 4th to 3rd gear to avoid any damage.

    Insurance response to my smoked Viper, outraged!

    Thank you! I am with you on all the points, the difficult part for me right now is to find "top notch" restoration shop. I've been looking on the internet and could not find anything in San Francisco area. The regular after fire cleaning companies are favor to do the simple cleaning work and...

    Insurance response to my smoked Viper, outraged!

    This morning insurance adjuster sends me PDF file with the description of the work and all he lists is a good cleaning worth of $500 (which is my deductible), that is it! This is Wawaneesa insurance, who are supposed to be good, but its all comes to this independent adjuster who thinks that...

    Viper got smoked (literally) Need help!

    Yes, and on top of the fabric I started thinking about all the gaps in the dashboard, vents, etc? Dam, I really need to find a really good specialist here in the SF Bay Area to guide me through this process.

    Viper got smoked (literally) Need help!

    Yeah, I realize that it sounds funny now but, when my neighbor called me screaming that my house is on fire the first question I asked if garage is intact or not. I must be crazy but I love this car and I think it looks and performs like nothing else on earth.

    Viper got smoked (literally) Need help!

    Yep, don't think insurance will go for a total unless I back it up with some hard proof from the specialists that the cost of removing smoke will be substantial. What do you guys think, what kind of specialists do I need to look for to get real independent appraisal on this thing :dunno:? I...
