Beards are very double edge sword-y. On one hand, I work outside a lot of the time and it really helps in the winter months to keep my face warm. On the other hand, it's itchy as hell. Grrrrrr

I stay scruffy in the winter months. It really does make a difference.

It does make a difference, but damn it sucks lol. I don't know how guys who have beards all the time deal with it. I'm sure once it gets to be pretty length it stops itching but jesus christ I can't deal with it for that long

Well I'd like to have it on at the end of this weekend. I'd probably be able to *verry* gently try it out but I'm not sure now that I see the kit. It has different injectors, plugs, etc so the tune will probably be required to get it to run well at all.

You have to have patience. Mine bugged me for a solid month but after you trim it a few times it becomes a part of you. I'm shaving my entire face off Mid March for the first time in like 12 years. Should be interesting.

CCs are a family hauler, awesome interior quality and plenty of room.
should probably look into a turbo model.. and doesn't the 4motion only come in a V6?
I'm sure you can get used ones for cheap or get a huge discount off the msrp on em.

yeah, i have the chin part permanently but the neck part drives me nuts. Lotion? really? I've never really heard of that. What kind of lotion are you talking about...like hand lotion? I actually try conditioning it in the shower and that seems to help a tiny bit but still itches.

I keep thinking of going completely clean shaven again too (haven't in 10 years or so). My gf doesn't want me to since I'll look 18. When I'm trimmed up and shaved now I look early 20ish and get carded at places when she doesn't lol. Makes her feel like she's robbing the cradle or something

I use Pantene pro-v in the shower, and wash my beard/goatee with it as well (every other day or so. opposite days are regular soap) I either use Eucerin lotion or Baby Magic. Solves the itching, and dryness.

I probally wouldn't drive it without the tune... especially at WOT.

oh yeah....Jay.........if you're tired of your shifter, I still have my stock one sitting in a box in the garage. You can have it free if you want to get rid of the notchy MGW. If you don't want it, I'm probably just gonna end up selling it for $15 or something cheap

Mark I wouldn't get on it wide open throttle and wouldn't even trust a tune on the ECU that you send out to them. It's one thing if it's some bolt ons, but we are talking the extremes here.

If you gonna run it on your stock DME it ain't going to happen, it may run but will run like straight ****.

The most I will do is start the car to hear the blower and move it out of the garage. I know better.
