not too sure if you have autox experience, but do you think the pmu clubracers could get up to temp quick enough? Im Trying to find a pad that doesnt require that much heat to reach full potential and can withstand some track/canyon abuse. I definitely dont need anything along the likes of a carbotech xp10/xp12, and Id rather not swap out pads as well. I was thinking winmax W3 as well but I havent read that much about them....

Yesterday with the help of my friend Noodler I had my rear quarter panel lips rolled and rear bumper tabs trimmed and relocated. Should be ready for the Weds and new CE28Ns when they arrive.

Inside edge of rear bumper shaved too? Quarters just barely rolled or fully rolled and pulled a little? Mostly concerning the CEs. If not the latter you're going to rub for sure.

Yeah I should be good to go. The Weds will be 14mm closer to the quarter panel, and the CEs will be 22.4mm closer to the quarter.

100,000 miles!
Finally broken in, no turning back now. Looking forward to the next 100,000!
Took it into my friend's shop tonight for engine and transmission oil change, and also finished up my rear bumper tab relocation. I was able to reuse the OEM mounting screw by just drilling a pilot hole that was a little smaller than the screw width, and then hammered up the regular mounting tab up out of the way once the screw was mounted further back. Hopefully I will be a little less busy in the coming months so I can get some tires mounted on the Weds and make sure everything will fit ok.
I was also able to finally do some things that have been bugging me like trimming a small bracket for the side strakes that normally hold the lower plastic section on which I removed. I also replaced 2 of the lower bumper mounting bolts with new ones since they were a bit worn. One nice thing about the R1 bumper is that it really only needs 4 lower mounting bolts compared to the 7 or whatever the OEM bumper uses.
