Thanks.

Yes.

Thank you for the correction as I in fact meant to say just that, 'Oversteer'. I'll need to go back and edit my post.

My description of what happens stands and is correct though I mistyped "Understeer". I jammed that reply out too quickly.

Again, thanks for the correction...and sharp eyes.

Regards,

Did you install your own clear bra? I was wondering how hard the installation might be for two people, since the cloest place i have that does clear bras is about an hour away in the middle of the boonies

The install is dependent on how much you are hands on and what you want to cover. The full kit is recommended to have installed by a trained installer. I have seen many people do it themselves and been happ with it. But to each their own, opinions can vary. If you need a kit let me know. I can get you one cheap.

clear bra

I had someone do the clear bra.

I thought about doing it myself as I did my Accord.

However, I wanted the headlights, mirrors and the front part of the quarter panels done.

I figured that some of the weird shapes may need an expert hand.

Doing the basic front edge of the hood on my accord was easy.

It turned out perfect. The guy did a nice job!

He charged me $215. I don't know if that is high or not. I did not shop around.

I still owe pictures of my V1 install but my stupid digi camera is playing difficult!

In a RWD when you lift the front will tuck in, in my M3 before, if you lift nicely it will tuck in, if you lift abruptly it would do a snap oversteer (ask me how I know).

its refered as "accel off" style of drifting in japanese
