Here are the pics (sorry theres cutting oil and aluminum slag all over in them and I hadn't washed the car in a couple months)...its either grind down the steel brace (hard) or grind the aluminum fins (easy) ...I used a Dremel 115 bit (Same one people used to use to grind their subframes for toebolts when the subframes were aluminum)...the cut is only about a centimeter high and a centimeter deep on each of the last two fins...If you are a bit more careful than me (not hard) and clear the slag as you go.. you probably will just have to repolish the leading edge of the parts of the fins you cut its really a tiny section so it shouldn't take too long

Adrian... if you buy it from Z1, then you get it in Z1's particular dark silver. Which is nice, but not what you're looking for. So instead, reach out directly to Arthur Bell and ask for one unpainted.

Yeah what Roch said! Mine came pre-painted in Red...IIRC correctly it cost more to get it unpainted for some reason and now they only have Red and gold as options but I'm sure Arthur will do it unpainted if you reach out to him directly, he responded to me on here through DMs and on facebook pretty promptly

That sucks, mine just started doing almost the same thing about two weeks ago apparently its a common problem (that I never heard about before)...have you tried cleaning the resistors on the senders?... this guy posted a couple of great videos on fixing the problem:

It seems like a quick fix, I'm hoping to have a few minutes to try it this weekend...I was looking at pricing out the Senders/pump....its seems silly but its almost the same price to get the sender as a whole pump/sender for the passenger side and the drivers side sender is a similar price as well.

Tried out some trim ideas in blue carbon fiber wrap. Thoughts?

Getting the trunk lip done today. Came as a black “carbon fiber” finish so I tried wrapping it with satin white pearl vinyl. Looks good from the photo, but in person it wasn’t quite right.
Got it back off the car and tried hitting it with light coats of white satin paint and clear.

The bearing/tire noise issue is a zombie and won’t die. Went to lunch today and hit 70 for the first time in a while and the noise and vibration is much worse at that speed. Going to take it back again on Wed. Wish me luck.
