- 4 Fake Car "Facts" I'm Tired of Hearing...Carbon Fiber is repairable. Do not replace Cracked or yellow Carbon Fiber! It can be fixed for much cheaper! Ceramic Coating also doesn't just fall off from Rain, it's not as simple as Car Wax or Detail Spray, it can last for YEARS if applied correctly! There are lots of Fake Performance Mods on eBay, but there are also several REAL Performance Mods that are mistakenly called Fake since people don't consider their gains massive enough to be useful, despite the fact that those gains can be cumulative and become more noticeable over time or in combination with other Car Mods!

I'm tired of JDM nerds saying that the R34 was banned from the U.S for being too fast.There needs to be a documentary on what happened with the 25-year import rule. People are surprised when I tell them, that rule doesn't apply to Jeeps.
That's the first time I've ever heard of it.
Also you don't need to be a genius on import export policies to see through this myth. Much faster cars like porshes and rarris were still avaliable in the states in that period.
It's crazy how it was such a huge thing not that long ago and now it barely matters because the one car that drew so much attention to it is exempt.
@@Sailed_away you would think this would be common sense but I think people mix up the Chicken Coupe tax and why certain cars aren't allowed in the country.
There are plenty of documentaries about the biggest EPA scandle after VW diesel-gate.
I catch a RHD Jeep every now and then and now it makes sense 🤔🤯
my brother mustang has ceramic coating, it stayed in the car with the last owner and its pretty nice still on my brother ownership. he has this car 1 year alrd and it didnt changed.
Yep, depending on the coating it can last up to 7 years.
i guess they now say " AWD cars need no wings "
I have it on good authority that NWD cars don’t need wings, that is unless they’re gravity racers.
I’m going to pitch some more in.
“Cars were just more reliable in the 1960s and 1970s.”
Car reliability peaked with the introduction of electronic fuel injection, electronic ignition, electronic engine control, better castings for engine blocks and higher quality fuel. Most of this started happening in the 1990s and peaked around 2010. A brand new Mercedes S-Class, a very unreliable car, will last twice as long as a 60s Dodge Dart.
“I don’t like hybrids. They’re too quiet!”
List of hybrids that aren’t:
Ferrari LaFerrari
McLaren P1
Porsche 918 Spyder
The entire WEC LMH field
The entire IMSA GTP field
Aston Martin Valkyrie
Red Bull RB17
Many modern supercars
“Your car does 0-60 in 5 seconds? That’s slow.”
There are literal race cars slower than that. The idea that a 5 second 0-60 and a 13 second quarter mile is slow is a stupid one.
Indycar goes hybrid too
I hate how people talk about today’s hybrid race cars aren’t pure bred enough because they have to “save fuel” and sometimes even lift off at the end of straights. Yet, that is exactly what race cars have been doing for decades to save fuel, save brakes and get the car to the finish line as fast as possible in one piece
@@DonLee1980 and in endurance race you need to survive to win the race. soo hybrid must be a good option to keep the car in good condition.

The fastest and easiest way to add gobs of power is to apply STP stickers to the quarter panels. Monster beverage stickers are also quite effective, and the chicks go absolutely wild over them.
I think the issue with cold air intake mods, is the number of people who dont install them as a cold air intake. Believing the shape of the filter is what creates the extra HP. The number of cold air intakes ive seen improperly installed creating a "hot air" intake is astounding
Or the people who put a tiny little filter on a way too big engine. "WhY DoEsN't mY K&N gIvE mE MoRe PoWeR?!" How about because it has half the surface area of your stock air filter, you absolute dipstick!
Sometimes its straight up embarrassing. I recently saw the hot air intake paired with a stock intercooler on a brand new m3 with 800 hp. Gotta be 120k in total. And thats in germany so that car is gonna see full throttle for minutes at a time.

Fwd with wing is more stable after cornering, rwd with wing gets it more grip.
FWD/RWD/AWD all need a rear wing for the exact same reason, keep oversteer in check during cornering(by providing more grip to the rear).
RWD just additionally gets more grip for acceleration while FWD does not.
Its more stable after cornering BECAUSE it has more grip. It's what aerodynamic adjustments/additions are for.
uhmmm. no. wings aren't isolated aero elements, that's your first mistake. Simple putting a wing on any car and not doing anything else is a stupid idea, basically means the car now has dynamic weight transfer as you traverse its speed range. Not to mention the natural aero of the car might not even necessitate a wing to begin with. Any aerodynamicist will tell you low pressure is waay more effective and efficient at creating actual downforce.
Just putting a wing on a fwd is asking for high speed understeer, and completely removes any high speed lift off oversteer.
They have their place, but not as stand alone add-ons. A rear wing redirects the boundary layer at the trailing end of the car, that layer of air that usually wants to flow around and suck the car back, you want to eject it, while bringing the low pressure zone as low to the ground as possible . Sometimes you can induce this without introducing a second areo element. And sometimes, a wing will actually raise the low pressure zone, creating actual instability.
The first myth MUST be a new development bc i worked with carbon 4 years ago and i didnt know this. Thats actually really cool to find out
They’ve been repairing cracked carbon fiber bicycle frames for years. Anyone who says repairing carbon fiber isn’t possible doesn’t know what they’re talking about, especially if it’s just the finish. That being said, depending on the part, it might not be worth it financially just like anything else.
@@LuckyCharms777 I repair my quadcopters when the carbon fiber gets cracked or stressed in a crash. Been doing it for years.

Yeah, another person commented about carbon fiber -airplane- aviation industry repairs. The car community is apparently late to the game on this issue.
Sometimes I find upbadging and downbadging to be hilarious af.
Wait Im going off topic. I think cars made mostly of carbon fiber is beautiful though. Also The Myvi I drive has an aftermarket closed pod and I feel that 4 HP gain.
Downbadging is genuinely so funny to me. But yeah I want to learn how to make carbon fiber parts because I think it'd be cool to make a classic American muscle recreation vehicle out of only carbon fiber body panels
4 HP gain are easier to feel in 80-100 HP engine.
As someone who comes from the aviation industry and has worked with composites, Carbon fiber is absolutely repairable.
Ditto! Also went from aviation to racing ages ago. Even when cf is f'ed up, like ALL THE WAY f'ed up, you can still fix it like normal and put an extra layer on top if all else fails.
Ditto
I work in Motorsport, on endurance races, we have a team member whose job is repairing carbon fibre bodywork.
However certain items are structural or safety critical and they don't repair them, but they are made using Autoclaves and far more technical workspace then found out of the back of the pits, I was in a series where a teams rear wing broke on track, when the failure was investigated it turned out they had repaired it themselves, instead of buying a new item, it cost them a lot more in the long run, repairing a crashed car, fines and disqualified by the race organisers.
can't throw a $30/hour welder onto it and expect anything other than horseshite in the end.
The stuff is great, and its not expensive, its fkn expensive XD
There is a small element of truth to "you're not gonna feel the mods". Modern vehicles run by computers need to be tuned to fully take advantage of mods as the hardware values have been changed (it's now able to take in more air and move more out of the exhaust etc). It's not just a case of chuck it on and go, because the computer is programmed to put out a specific power figure. Its not like the old days where you can just spend a few minutes fiddling with the carburettor to make up the airflow difference.
It's this AND many people aren't modding engines that respond well to modification. Throwing a ported throttle body on an N/A vehicle that already can't flow more air into the combustion chamber because you're running a stock cam, stock head, and stock manifolds will absolutely see negligible gains.
I think the video author is right that a lot of the folks talking about this are right when it's to a vehicle that doesn't have a motor operating at its near limits for its equipment already. But what he's missing is the sad fact is that putting a ported throttle body on your base model USDM crapbox will do pretty much nothing without supporting modifications or going forced induction. No, a 120MM throttle body absolutely will not make a 99 Ford Taurus any faster. That's just a hard fact. If you spend a couple grand on the engine on the other hand... you really could've spent it on a better platform that will respond to modifications better.
@EyebrowsMahoney too right. Another aspect is putting heads with huge ports on, or huge intakes. It might increase air volume, but if you go too big then the air velocity is affected too. It's a matter of finding that sweet spot
I’ve always understood it as horsepower per dollar. People waste tons of money on multiple tiny horsepower gains because they’re buying it piecemeal as they can afford it, rather than saving their money to buy one expensive but huge horsepower gain that can definitely be felt.
Random but bladed I made ur Corvette in gt7 lol its an impossibly fun car
Hell yeah
The livery is also in foza, i have my own version with a metallic burgundy body. Really good car in S1 for street racing, shove some slicks instead of aero and it's a bullet, just requires a little more awareness on that high end
@@Ferrari255GTO I don't have Forza lol, however in gt I tried to make it as close to original so by memory I added only the modifications that I remembered he had on his own car and I tend to stay away from slicks generally on road cars so they feel more unique than the race cars

*As far as CAIs go, my airbox takes up a space of about 1.5'x1.5'x1.5' and a lil more for the part where it connects to the trottlebody. The CAI takes up a 3.5"x24"*
I'd be happy with a 5hp gain. What I'm more interested in, is the room to work around, I gain.
Never knew Carbon Fiber could be repaired, that cool. Also, where is FB Marketplace episode 2? That should be bi-weekly at least.
Same rules as fiber glass really. It's still a fiber end of day
Carbon Fiber is a sandwich of Carbon and Resin.
Resin can be sanded back to smooth and then coated again, but you shouldn't paint resin on old resin. It will separate in the future. Use a clear paint instead.
Ceramic is a non-trademarkable term. Which is why there are so many ceramics out there. That's why I use GLARE instead base level treatment is good for 5 years but it lasted 6 on my father in laws CUV despite not being garaged. Real ceramics are good for about 3years and cost the same or more than GLARE.
Actually, real ceramic coatings can last up to 7 years depending upon how it’s maintained. These generally have to bake under UV lights for proper application.
@UpperDarbyDetailing and you know 95% of people do not follow proper care. Normal applications cared for under normal circumstances 3 years. GLARE completely ignored 5 years for the basic 7 for the Advanced. With proper care, it can be much much longer for both. You can't go by the best case scenarios if you're being realistic. Besides GLARE doesn't have to be UV cured and can be applied at any temperature and can be applied to exhaust as it is rated to over 600 degrees Fahrenheit which is why I apply it to every custom paint job my company does. I even offer it the service just as a service. I dumped ceramic a long time ago because it doesn't have the longevity nor ease/convenience of application to get the longevity. I could not stand watching my customers throw away money, knowing they won't follow instructions past the first wash. Now they don't have to. "Eh, just wash it with dawn, nothing else." I offer a touch-up service if they get Knicks or small scratches for a nominal fee. Ceramic requires paint correction to be at its best the GLARE system is paint corrective through the process. It makes life easier for me and my guys. It makes it virtually idiot proof for my customers, and they lime that.
@@christophersaint6926 true, though if you can afford a house proper application in the first place you can probably afford to pay a detailer to properly care for it.
Still, it is important to let people know what they expect with proper care either way.
@@UpperDarbyDetailing Sadly that seems to matter not anymore. This is one of the many reasons I switched to GLARE. It's literally a no-brainer for upkeep.
@@UpperDarbyDetailing
As a customer, I’d rather buy a one and done service. Affording this stuff is a stretch for a lot of people in the first place. They might be willing to get it if they know it means they won’t have to constantly pay a detailer for upkeep. I’m also the type of customer that won’t follow after care myself like he said, so this GLARE sounds like it would be the perfect option for people like me.
Love ya but rwd cars have superior launch over fwd on a strip! Weight transfer pushes the tire down ,wheel hop isn’t asss much of an issue, all inertia pushes those tires down in the rear and a fwd car does the same thing which means the front tires are getting pulled up by the weight of the car off the surface so to speak when they launch
Also the long wings like that are for stability at speed there is no wind or downforce when you launch
I like to think of it as the rest of the car being a wheelie bar for FWD cars lol
Right! A fwd car only has an advantage at complete rest because generally the weight distribution is 60% or higher towards the front. As soon as the car moves a few feet all gains are lost as the weight moves off the front wheels.
3:18 as a detailer who works with a lot of ceramic coatings, please do not just rinse a coated vehicle off, yes the visible dirt will come off but without a proper wash, a layer of dirt will form over the ceramic coating and diminish or even cancel out the beading effect of the coating
People fail to understand that mechanical agitation is needed to clean a surface, whether a car, dishes, or clothing. Nobody just stands under a shower-head and thinks that it cleans their body or washes their hands by holding them still under a faucet. This is why touchless car washes are a joke.
Apparently the effect of down force on the rear wheels stops mattering if the car is fwd lol.
fwd cars clearly don't have rear wheels, they're just stickers
i thought this was common knowledge by now
@@hondafknciviv3818 the rear wheels are just a marketing trick from the companies to make customers feel safe

There is a carbon fiber that is not repairable and needs to be replaced.
The carbon fiber wrap.
For some cars like the Toyota 86 a simple change to catless headers can be quite the noticable feel considering it get rids of infamous torque dip the Gen 1s had. So yeah there are modifications you can feel outside of slapping some forced induction supercharger all unga bunga like which is what some people swear is the only thing that will make a noticable difference.
I've haven't heard a single one of these and would laugh at someone if they told me this... Get out of the Squid game and man up Buttercups.
My biggest annoyance is the misconception that FWD can't drift. If you can't get one sideways that's your own damn fault. Plenty of rally drivers and OG drift drivers could send a Civic as easily as a Silvia.
It's just a skill issue.
You can do it but you can't stay in forever sadly.
I usually say it can’t drift but it can slide. I consider a drift to be where you are still powered by wheels. FWD just usually just pulls itself straight out of the slide if you floor it. Certainly a skillful person can do it better and for longer but I don’t consider it to be a “true drift”
(This comes from a person who only has driven fwd and wants to learn to slide it properly, my current car is in the shop because I had tried 💀)
Shingo Shoji has entered the chat
But they can't. Getting a car sideways/causing oversteer/sliding the rear/etc. are all not drifting. Drifting is controlling and holding oversteer through power(and steering).
You can't oversteer FWD with power, just hard cornering and or braking/handbrake so its "just" sliding, there is still a lot of skill behind it, but its not drifting.
I feel like you missed the main point about why normies think FWD cars don't need wings. They all say it just adds traction over the nearest set of wheels. So, magically, putting a wing on a RWD car means it won't spin the tires as much so you can accelerate harder, and FWD cars don't require any traction on the back tires. Is this dumb? Yes, very. I've given up trying to explain why you would want a big rear wing on a FWD car to these people. Anyone with even a very basic understanding of traction dynamics on a curvy road course knows better. These are usually the same kind of people who think bigger HP number is the only measure of how fast a car is.

On mods and wings… I “5hp” modded my car multiple rounds, for a massive amount of extra torque for a few hundred $. Something you can definitely feel. It adds up if you pick well.
I have a FWD hatch and it was lifting in the rear in corners over 80mg on track days. Aero changed the car… and I could feel the extra grip at 60 on a winding country road.
…and stop picking on “old” guys… I’m currently helping my son learn how to mod for maximum effect through testing and smart choices.
Good list!

yay new vid
FWD actually has a disadvantage in drag racing. Upon acceleration the center of mass moves backwards due to inerita putting more weight on the rear wheels increasing traction. Where-as on a front wheel drive car the weight is taken off the drive wheels. This is why FWD cars have difficulties with wheel spin on launch.

A cam can increase hp upwards of 100hp on some applications. That said there’s no such thing as a torque cam, hp cam, turbo cam, nitrous cam, stage 1,2,3,4,5 whatever cam. They’re all just cams with different specifications but they all will work in any application. Get the correct spec camshaft for your application and use. Furthermore a cam is wasted without the ability to move the air in and out so full length headers should be done at a minimum and proper heads would give maximum benefit with the cam.

Opinion approved ✔️
(Has nothing to do with video but I like it) I have a question, when you have a car and you have to replace a lot of stuff, at one point would you consider that car not the same car?
Would it be when you replace every last part, or would you consider that car not the same car after you replace the exterior?
Id look at it like a kit car on a Lexus or whatever, it looks like asupercar, but unless you replace the interior and engine it's still a Lexus at the end of the day. But I'd say it's more or less subjective
Finally, car of Theseus
Big bore works for the same reason de-stroking some engines also can boost HP, but for opposite ends of design. It's about reciprocating mass vs jerk. A bigger bore at the same rpm can make more crank torque, great for an engine already breathing efficiently at higher rpm. De-stroking an engine can help an otherwise "overrevving" rotating assembly shift its balance towards higher rpm cuz the pistons aren't accelerating as quickly now.
Dirty cars passed off as a barn finds is the most annoying for me
I had cam on a little 8v mk2 jetta. It wasnt fast by any means but the mod was definitely felt. The car was so much more responsive. It also had a manual rack and no AC. Everyone loved driving it.
The nissan GTR LM Nismo (the lmp1 car) shown in the video was AWD, its just that the rear wheels were powered by electric motors. When running ICE only it would be front wheel drive, but it wasnt meant to be purely fwd.
There’s a cam for 5.3 Ls that add almost 200 hp for a reasonable price I guarantee you can feel a 200 hp increase 😂
I think he's talking about cold air intakes. They dont actually make more power if they dont take colder air into the engine. Otherwise they're a waste of money. Some people buy them to hear more intake noises.

by far the hardest part of fasting is the boredom. If you've never done a multiday fast, you have no idea the enormous amount of your daily time is spent thinking about, preparing, or eating food.

I got lazy and stopped waterless washing my ceramic coating, and now I get 95% of a detail by simply going to the self wash, blasting down the car with high pressure rinse spray, then driving on the freeway for 5 minutes for the hard water to slide away (gotsta dab off the hard water left over or it drys to a white crust)...then if I feel like it I hot the wheels with some product. :)

Hey there I have an important question: you said that older people tend to believe in wax instead of ceramic coating. So does this mean that you should not add a ceramic coat over a wax coat?
Carbon fibre on structural components is repairable true but manufactorers won't because the structure is compromised. Gordon Murray won't use carbon fibre wheels and isntead uses alloy on the T.50 because of this, since if the wheel is kerbed or goes through a pothole, theres no telling how much structural damage was done and when the wheel will fail.
Carbon fibre on wings and body panels however is a completely different story since aestethic/aerodynamic and not structural.
Just wanted to clarify.
I could be wrong but I'm pretty FWD cars are WORSE at launching/ drag racing bevause of load transfer.
When a car accelerates, load is transferred to the REAR wheels, giving RWD cars a traction advantage, not FWD cars
*Puts on fake spray-on "ceramic" coat*
Them: "I hAve StAgE tWo WaX"
Greatr vid. All of these myths are sort of based in fact and sort of based in mystery. Repaired Carbon Fibre isn't as strong, or have the same structural integrity as the original, but of course you can repair it.
Ceramic coating has to be applied to a perfectly clean surface, or it doesn't stick well, but has been used for 20+ years in the detailing industry for a reason.
You generally need at least 30+ horsepower, at the wheels, to feel any difference in your butt dyno.
You're dead on with the FWD vs RWD wing debate.
Keep up the sweet content. Stay Happy and Healthy
realistically speaking there's not a huge difference between fwd and rwd launches, it all comes down to your torque and your tires. If you have the same tires as the person next to you, and you're both peeling out, you're going to launch roughly the same, because the amount of force transferred into motion will be about the same.
How are they gonna sell you more car wax if they give you a real ceramic coating that won't need to be reapplied for years

I love the people that talk about fwd cars not being "able" to do something and when they're told they're wrong they just go nuh uh. "Fwd cant drift" well the rear has swung out and there's plenty of oversteer going on. That looks a lot like a drift. "That's just a slide" isn't a drift technically just a well controlled slide? "No because it's all about the power when drifting" extra power definitely helps to kick the rear end out but that just shows how much of a skill issue you have. Starting a drift is more about car control than it is any big power number. A majority of drifting is how you brake to induce the oversteer and that's quite the opposite of having power to just cause the rear end to kick out. Plus the whole thing about power is pretty much invalidated by a majority of the sub 200hp cars people would be drifting in the 80s and 90s. Hell the toyobru is an excellent car to learn how to drift on because it teaches you that it's not actually the power that matters but by how you control the car. If that rear end kicks out, the driver could control it, and it looked cool, that's a drift in almost anyones books. Doesn't matter what car did it.
People in the motorcyle world love saying, "Just get a bigger bike," when you mod and tune them. I like my 700 naked. I just want it to be a little faster, sound better, and be more responsive. So yeah, I'm gonna dump another $1,500 or so bucks into it so I can have that. If I wanted a faster bike, I would have gotten a faster bike.
Dam bladed besame Eminem when he talked about carbón
For the "FWD dont need no wings", its really a thing of aero balance.
For FWD car you'll wanna run higher downforce in the front compared to the rear, but you still want rear downforce. You still want rear downforce because if you have too much downforce in the front, your rear would be really unstable.
Not a single person has ever bundled cam in with mods like air intake and a loud as fuck pipe ??? What are you on about

I think the ceramic coating thing happens because when people use a company like avalon kings which is a DIY ceramic coat so because of that they probably think it's lower quality won't last long
Quite helpful info would like to see more of these !
amazing video as always! love your content💗
My dad used to fix carbon fiber bicycles, like snapped frames.
Its always a good day when bladed posted.
Good information. But it's a myth that cams add any power. When you look at the full Dyno and compare the different cams you'll see it only shifts the power. A stock cam is generally for lower rpms and your performance cams will gain in the mid rpm to upper rpm band and turbo cams will generally have power in the upper bands. But it does not add any power just moves the available power in the rpm bands.
I rhink a dying misconception of the cold air intake is that it is a bolt-on part for more hp. Many vehicles have a sensor measuring the intake air, changing the flow around that sensor can cause less hp if the engine computer isn't tuned to match the new parameters.
I hate when people say a car is too slow because it does 0-60 in over 4 seconds. It makes me feel like theyve been watching too many lamborghini svj launches oh yt and theyve ben desensitised
I had a kid try to tell me that he had a "power band installed" on his engine.
Damn, he already knows I'm getting that sticker applied.
Actually RWD cars have launch traction advantage. The more weight they distribute to the rear wheels the harder they can accelerate.
Ceramic coating is the best thing it ever existed in the detail department, I've washed my van with ceramic coating shampoo from Turtle Wax and I can assure you the car will remain clean for longer, when previously I washed my van with wax shampoo I would wash it every month and a week after washing I could already notice it wasn't clean as I would like to, while the ceramic coating I would wash it every 3 months and 1 month after washing it it was still very clean like you could look and say that it was washed yesterday... Sure it's a cheap shampoo that has ceramic coating properties that won't last as long as the real deal and it costs twice as much as regular shampoo, but it lasts 3 times longer and your car will be clean for way longer, you are saving water money and effort... "FWD cars with wings is bad" that's one way to tell me you are not a driver, sure in US I can see why that is a statement since everything is mostly flat and people only race in a straight line, but if you go to racetracks and you want more out of your car if you can why not? It's not just for downforce purposes it's also how the air leaves the vehicle that sloshes the back end of the car left right back and forward, I mean depends there is spoilers and wings you can have both and each of them, spoiler is to diffuse how the air leaves the car, wings is what gives downforce...
to be fair on the Exhaust upgrade point its both a yes and a no, if you only "upgrade" the exhaust pipes without making any performance enhancing upgrades to the engine itself is a waste as all you will create is more noise and less back-preassure which can harm performance on some engines, where as if your adding forced induction kits, upgrading to smoother flow headders or tuning you may get performance benefits to replacing a stock system
TL;DR Exhaust mods are a waste of time unless you are making more power to begin with
I saw a video of a dude moving his cam shaft, and his Holden maloo made 360 hp and be the end of it 460 hp.
This is a easy mod for dirt bikes, change the cam and you can get much more torque or more speed depending on what field you are riding.
I believe you're talking about spotto. If you are, it's just a normal vf Commodore, ss ute which the Maloo is based on.
@Gengargamer2_ yes and thank you for correcting me

I am not sure about the FWD being advantageous when launching. After the weight transfer kicks in, the front tires will lose traction while the rear wheels will gain more.
i thought fwd cars didn’t need wings because a wing will create downforce on the rear wheels which makes the front wheels lift more or have less pressure on them so they have less traction?
Carbon fiber can be repaired for aesthetics, but it will never be as strong as it used to be.
Another one is "matte finish isn't aggressive".
....nardo grey jinx.
I have not said the FWD cars don't need wings. What I HAVE said is that for most street driving speeds a wing is pretty much useless and in fact might just add needless weight. Also, the "wings" that many OEM factory cars come with provide little to no downforce.
I actually feel the difference with a cold air intake on my 328i. My turbo spools quicker when I use launch control and throttle is way way more responsive. Not much more powerful but much more enjoyable to daily
Myth: Carbon Fiber is not repairable.
Fact: Carbon Fiber is _somewhat_ repairable*.
*[Fast-talking radio commercial legalese guy at the end of the ad]: "Carbon fiber damage that can be repaired is not in fact, actually damage to carbon fiber, but damage to cured clear coats, and any damaged carbon fiber is still replaced, just at a smaller scale. Manufacturers are not responsible for additional damage caused by improperly working the damaged area and performing third-party patchwork repair. Repair options subject to availability and may not be possible in all states. Warning, do not use carbon fiber for structural elements under compressive loads. Using carbon fiber for structural elements under compressive loads may introduce risk of fatal implosion."
I once did an engine remap on my old ‘04 Cayenne Turbo and it went from 418 HP to 500. It was around $500.
I could definitely feel that and noone said a bad word about it even at the official Porsche dealership.
Ceramic spray and coatings are very different they both are called ceramic cause of the molecules they use. May seem mismarketed but I disagree personally.
