    question on parts/labor for 2013

    Bump. Sorry guys, I am generally inept when it comes to cars. Just trying to make sure I order the right part for the valance. Anyone have any suggestions where to purchase? Thanks in advance

    Longevity of The SHO

    Bumping this thread as I am in a similar situation as to deciding to keep SHO or not. I have test drove everthing (BMW 7 series, 5 series M, Range Rover, etc..), and nothing has everything my SHO has (remote start is a MUST for me). I turned 67,000 miles and I havent had any major issues...

    question on parts/labor for 2013

    Is it really really easy to do? I am not close to mechanically inclined! I am in NJ. I would give it a shot though. Just don't know if it includes wiring or whatever but they said they just need to replace the camera?

    thanks! Think I, with limited or basically no mechanical skill, can install the valance? :)

    question on parts/labor for 2013

    The sensor is in the bumper cover, correct. They said that the labor to replace it included removing the bumber, not replacing. The lower valiance is the plastic piece that gets scraped everytime I pull out of my driveway as i have a dip by the driveway and street. It just sounds extremely...

    question on parts/labor for 2013

    Hi All, I waas quoted $805 plus tax for my dealer to replace the front lower valance and the LF collision sensor. Sounds very high to me, as I thought I have seen valances for under $100. Anyone have any thoughts? Experience replacing either part? Thanks in advance!

    Love My 2013 SHO

    Seriously, I really have looked at so many cars and I cant justify getting out of the SHO. Perfect blend of performance, space, technology for me. Its amazing that some of the high-end german cars miss the boat IMO, on this blend.

    Love My 2013 SHO

    Totally agre man, and exactly where my head is. I have never had a car make me want to keep it! Haha. Such a weird situation for me. I am almost programmed to get something new every year, but I am still excited getting into my SHO and taking off. I just hope i dont run into major issues...

    Love My 2013 SHO

    Anyone rocking 100k miles or so on a 2013 or later without any major issues? Was thinking of purchasing ESP but not sure it is worth it.
