Stalagtites and stalagmites too. Why do you think it's still in the plastic?

Yeah it’s not the side to side to blame, I think it’s the slider, the tolerances are very tight to limit the play, and the shifter arm and slider cavity is aluminum so it’s reasonable to assume the thermal expansion of the arm is causing the change.


With my setup and using the super slider you can def fell and better (for me) stiffness in the shifter when it’s hot, so it’s not an actual issue in my case - I know with @BadHombre760 is shifter assembly doesn’t take kind to that expansion at all though as it will fight him out of gears to my understanding
Sanded down the slider and applied some lithium grease and problem solved (at least from what I could tell from a 30 minute drive). It still stiffens up a bit but doesn't fight me in and out gears. We'll see when it really warms up in a couple months

Still need to figure out what that smell is coming from under the hood after spirited drives... kind of a burnt urine smell, anyone else experience this?

Me? Oh. Nothing special. Just the Rennwagen Side extensions With winglets. @Javwohl installed em for me a sec ago.

the packaging was crazy impressive. Ups fedex and usps could have their way with the package and it would’ve survived. No doubt about it. @Chet Ubetcha went all out

according to Javwohl, install was easy as hell. Didn’t even need to jack the cars up.
