Can't find the right 3m tape for my louvers locally. So I have to wait for CDC to send it out. Looks like I won't be install my louvers till early next week. Good thing is CDC is hooking me up for free.

Leo, it's not real hard, but I only know a small portion of what it is capable of. I am just starting to learn and play with layers.

Won't hurt to call a few places to see if they can sell you 3 or 4 feet if you want to install it right away.

I don't know why I didn't think of that. Called 8 different shops all of them said NO they won't sell anything. What bunch of D-bags.

I called CDC again and they said since they sent it out regular mail (in an envelope) so it's possible that it might get here Friday/Saturday. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Well I can always test fit,prep, and take pics till then.

Sorry I don't have anything to send you Leo. I used my last roll of 3m double sided tape fixing moulding on my car before I traded it in for the Mustang.

Got the delivery confirmation from Bamachips, but it won't be here 'til Monday At least I know I'll get it.

LOL.
I'd recommend installing the O/R H this weekend so your ready to go Monday afternoon when you get back from work.

I'll make sure to post if I find any. I think Daryl missed or ignored my request for that chop. Don't know what's up with MWAG but it's getting annoying. I forgot to call them today. I'm sure they'll be thrilled when they here my voice yet AGAIN.

So, here's a weird question for all that view this thread. Honestly, I don't want to deal with starting a new thread on the main site, so I figured I'd ask for the opinions of the people on this thread.
I've always had issues with my fuel tank with trying to fill it up (as a lot of others have), and I am aware that there is a TSB out for it. But, instead of dealing with having to go to the dealer and have them drop the tank, I've either gone to gas stations that don't seem to cause this problem, or just deal with the problem and pump it at about half-flow.
But, here's my observations from my 5 latest rounds of fill-up:
Lately [and it doesn't matter if I have a half-tank (which normally caused the never-ending fill up) or am low on fuel], I haven't been having the problem. What I've been doing is starting gas flow very slowly, taking about 5 seconds to reach maximal flow. Then, I keep it at max flow. And, it's been working just fine. I've done this at different gas stations (even one that I had a problem with before), and it's been flawless [knock-wood].
So, I was just wondering if any of y'all had any similar experiences with this in terms of it being a possible fix. It kind of makes sense, as it allows more air to escape and equalize before pumping at max flow.
Once I get aggravated enough at it, I'm going to take it in to get the TSB done on it. But, in my latest rounds of fill-ups, all seems to be good.
Hopefully, it isn't too good to be true

What I noticed is that the stations with the bigger vapor thingie..(technical term) are the worst. The newer pumps without the vapor deal or the smaller, half-length one I never have a problems with. What did work for the pumps that don't want to fill is to turn the pump handle upside down so that it's 180 degrees from where you would normally have it. The only problem with this is that it doesn't stop when the tank is full, so I usually only put in enough gas to get me around 'til I hit the next station.
Bet Bill has run into this alot

Yup same problems here. I've taken it in for the replacement and still get the problem occasionally. Like Brian said the 180 trick seems to work at times. But then there's times that no matter what you do it cut's off every 2 seconds. It only happens to me 1 out of 15 fill-ups so it's not too annoying.

From what y'all are saying, I don't think I'm even going to waste my time taking it in to be fixed.
Fortunately, I don't have the issue with the fuel pump after cruising like lots of other 05's do.

I've only used 1 gas station thus far, my local Mobil. No issues with fueling for me.

what you say...?
You never realize how much these cars reflect the colors that they are surrounded by until you remove the colors around them.

Luckily I haven't had this problem with my '07. Good luck!
