Not what I did TO my P5 but what I did FOR my P5

called and emailed a certain vendor on this forum (not going to name names) like 3 times a day to figure out the following.....

A. Why has my credit card not been charged for a part I order 11 days ago
B. Why do you keep letting it "slip through the cracks"
C. Why won't you return my attempts to contact
D. Why does something so little have to be so damn difficult

It seems if you are in sales your ability to continue your livelyhood is based solely on customer satisfaction. I hate incompetence! Hope he sees this. If you do well, I'm sorry but it's true.(poke) cause I'm (pissed)

I have been looking at the hyperblack also. Different from silver and not black (how obvious of me). I did find some ADR Battle Exes, but not sure if I want to go gloss black with the polished lip....I guess I could go with these...

go gunmetal- in my opinion different lighting gives you different shades

 

[rednecks_r_us]

I painted my red MP5 oil cap laser blue and left the center red. I am wondering if I should paint the whole thing blue and paint MP5 in black.

 

[CTt3P5]

One vote for painting it blue with MP5 in black...by any chance is there some of the black paint they used for your car that you could use?

 

[CTt3P5]

Are you sure the DARE plate is still black? on of my roommates was looking into getting that plate because it was black but I guess they revised it and it is no longer black.

There is a black JTI (GTI with jetta front end) with black wheels, dark tint, and that dare plate.. it looks really good.

(pissed) Stupid state! I popped into my local tag agency on my way home from work and they did drop the black DARE plate.

I may be wrong, but I'm under the understanding that Hyper-black also has different shades in different light, but you get a touch more bling with Hyper-black...

thoughts?? (I haven't seen them side by side)
