Greetings again and congrats 2 U once again! So, how does the new badge look? Thumbs up or down in your opinion? Worth the loooooong wait? Still haven't had a chance to pick up mines yet, but hopefully sometime next week. BEST REGARDS

It looks the same as their previous badges so I've no clue why it took them so long..... Or maybe there are slight differences that I'm unaware of.

D I N A N 5

That's pretty much it. I'll post a pic once I get it put on.

Seriously...hahaha

I actually suggested that they make a roundel using the "D" logo for their S-packaged cars. Wonder if they'd do it.

Hmm...maybe I can go get it custom made.

I actually have a G Meter. It's been sitting in my glove compartment for close to a year now.
I am glad you and the other guys are happy with your DINAN mods including the software. BUT, I cannot fathom why one would have a g-meter and not do a before and after comparison - sitting in glove box for a year :thumbsdown: what's the point?? Butt dynos are ok up to a point but what about some real numbers. Now if you EVER do use your meter it will only be an after and you?ll never know the real improvement you gained nor be able to quantify for those sitting on the sidelines trying to make informed decisions on what to do next for performance mods. I am so disappointed I?m going off to a corner and cry.

I agree with you CD and I'm actually frustrated as well for my irresponsibility in not using the GMeter. When I first had it, I was eager as hell to test it but couldn't find a road. Then my wife kept complaining that it was an eye sore so I put it in the glove. There you have it...out of sight, out of mind.
