Got the next generation of brackets in and have sent the new style off to the anodizer today, they will be ready to ship on Monday. The fender blanks should be here by Friday, so i will get the fenders cut over the weekend and ship those on Monday as well.
But guess what else is happening.... I'll give you a hint in picture form, see if you can guess what it is?
rear fender
Display MoreLoving me some Sling. Not so much the noise.
On the ride from NM to Tennessee I thought it was a little loud. And the drone at 80 was a little much as well.
Miss Nancy says it isn’t bad to her ear.
Well, I hauled out my trusty SLM this afternoon to see just how loud it is.
My exhaust is an Uptone (one of the original 25 produced). It dumps to the ground right in front of the passenger.
Idle is about 95 dB.
Cruise at 50-60 is about 100.
Full throttle measured out at 104 to 105 dB.
No wonder my ears were ringing at the end of the day. Gotta do something about this. Wonder how much good running the exhaust pipe out the side would do. Or should I just scrap it and go with a Welter rear exhaust?
Lookin’ for ideas gang!

You will be very happy with the Welter exhaust and @Jeff Welter and family are great to work with.
@Chowder is a rockstar, My wife loves him to death,... I think it's just his air ride shocks.
He pulled up next to us last year and let the air out. My wife turned to me and said " we have to have that! That was freaking cool!" She said we must have the air ride before I can have a SC
Lol @Shatneyman you are the star. Even have a pic of your Sling hanging in the garage. Ordered one of the pics from the Dragon and you’re in the background following us.
They are going to to be $399 per set. Includes wire, and a free RF RGB Controller.
I’ve been runnning the @SlingTunes wheel lights since June and they have been great.
Sadly, I have the drivers side. @HLC45 , if you can get it to me, I might be able to fix it but it may be a warranty issue and if that is the case, get to a dealer!
I have a white passenger side panel, it has the normal spider crack. Kept it when it was replaced under warranty. Happy to send if it helps.
Not much Carbon Fiber modding for me lately. I started a project on my enclosed trailer last September and have been spending all of my available time working on the trailer. Warm weather and Maggie Valley will be here soon.
the pics of the trailer look great.
Did you catch it from @av8ingtom?
I didn’t catch it from @av8ingtom but he certainly isn’t helping with all of his cf work
Thanks @McClendons. I may have a small addiction to carbon fiber
Nice set up Chowder. Neat and tidy. Do have an amp installed? I just picked up a JL MX280/4 amp, I'm starting install as soon as I read the destructions.

Thanks Lui I have a couple amps, one under each seat. If your looking to by pass all the ebrake safety stuff on the deck let me know I’ve got an extra module to bypass it.
Hi all, has anyone installed a pioneer avh4100bs, with a 7" screen? I am in the process of making a custom bracket so the screen sits vertically straight. I noticed that the sun would shine onto the screen making it impossible to see it clearly. I will post pics as soon as I am done. If anyone has this unit in their sling, can you please post some pics?
I have the avh4800 it has the screen and chassis, here are a few pics
looks good! You can email me the others if you want. I appreciated the feedback!

thanks
I emailed the videos
@Chowder have any pics?
Here are a couple pics, they are multi color but by chance both shot when lit up green.
I have a couple videos of them changing color but not sure how to upload here. Happy to email or text to you if you like.
I purchased rings and lights (I used an existing controller I had) from Shawn last year at Maggie Valley and am pleased with them. They are thicker rings than others I had looked at. Install was truly bolt on. Holding up well so far.
I peeled mine off to hydrodip the transmission tunnel and they came off really clean, only small spot near seatbelt mounts required a bit more attention.
Just confirming what @lowlander has said @soluga, as we discussed regarding the rear protection plates. I still need to confirm that cost for you for two plates, but it has run about $34.50 for the single plates I have shipped there through USPS. UPS is cheaper in the states but is much higher to Canada for some reason. @Chowder did have me ship his to Niagara Falls, NY as he lives nearby. I don't know if he used a business or friend's address.
The MeanSling bags are nice and I'm looking forward to using my new set. If I can ship a set to you along with the plates for no, or little extra charge, I'd be willing to do that for you, but I'm guessing you can work something out directly with @Ruptured Duck/MeanSling.
I have a postal outlet that I ship to in NY and just pick it up from there. They charge by the package ($5) but cheaper than most shippers flat fees for importing.
Get well soon @V-SHOT
Get well soon Bill
Happy Birthday @Goats_Hogs
Happy Birthday @Bu11sh1t!!
I've still got one red, one gloss black, a handful of flat black, and several smooth aluminum rear plates for anyone interested. Check post #1 of this thread for current pricing.
hi @SlingLow I’ll take one of the smooth unfinished aluminum please. With the 3m left unattached. Can you confirm email for PayPal. Thanks
Chowder
