  1. An enormous THANK YOU you to the amazing Carnity team and community. I look forward to passing on the knowledge which I learned from you. The "Monster" and I are eagerly looking forward to seeing you all on the next drive
  2. Thank you @Frederic, I'd be happy to help. @Pranjal Varsani The Y62 is an amazing offroad machine, but changing the bumpers is essential since the approach and departure angles of the stock bumpers aren't adequate. I broke my front bumper twice before opting to change it to a smaller design. The industrial area in Sharjah provide a lot of options, but my understanding is that all the shops give it to this one guy who does it for pretty much everyone. His Instagram is @bab_sahel and he charges anywhere from 1200 to 1800 for the front, inclusive of the bash plate which is essential. Try to get a bash plate which has a minimum of 8mm thickness. If you do go to him, tell him Salar with the Black Patrol sent you, hopefully he gives a better price. For the back, I've ripped the diffuser twice (thank you Fred for picking it up for me on that drive a few months ago!), but have not managed to actually damage the rear bumper itself. I've learned that the spare wheel actually does a good job of protecting the bumper, so I'm ambivalent about changing the bumper as of now; why fix something that's not broken (yet). I'm thinking of just getting a new diffuser, and removing it before every drive. But Bab_Sahel does have shorter rear bumpers as well. Here are a few pictures of my car: Keep in mind the above are fiberglass options. There are metal options as well, but the law is a bit shady as as to whether it's legal or not. I'd avoid the metal options, as you'd be at the mercy of the RTA supervisor during renewal. But anyway, here is the shop that has it: And here is a rear picture of my car taken yesterday on a Fewbie drive. As you can see the diffuser has tore off, but the bumper is fine. Anyway, hope the above was helpful. Keep us updated as to what you end up doing, stay safe, and have fun! Cheers, Salar
  3. Thank you @Vanessa8580 and the entire team for an incredible day today. It was a good mix of technical dunes in the beginning, an exhilirating ride up Faya Mountain, and finally a nice cruise through the bowls. Here are a few snaps of the day. Have a great weekend everyone! Cheers, Salar
  4. I would be happy to join if those ahead of me on the waiting list drop out..
  5. I need to hire someone to quickly sign me up for these drives as you're all too fast for me... 😅 Wait list please. Thank you.
  6. It was an incredibly drive. A big thank you to @Wrangeld for keeping the drive fun, safe, and educational as always. Richard I really appreciate your methodical approach in ensuring everyone learns as much as possible from every opportunity. @Veedooshee did a terrifc job as center forward, always first on the scene, and always providing excellent support to get the crew out of sticky situations. Everyone else, thank you for an amaznig day. It was a pleasure to ride with you all, and hope to see you on the next drive soon. P.S. Posted a few pictures in the gallery.
