Looks great.

It's supposed to be 60F on Sat. here in the People's Republic. With any luck I can at least bathe the F. Clay bar is going to have to wait until real warm weather I think.

Yep, plenty warm enough to wash off the salt.

Looks great Larry!

Yes, spring can't come soon enough!
Since I took delivery, I've only driven mine one other day due to this recent stretch of crappy winter weather. Unfortunately, next mid-week another storm might be brewing after 50+ degrees this weekend. I should have bought Unhingd's wheels!!!! I still have me eye on those bad boys...

Nice!

I do envy you the warm weather. Here it is still well below zero celsius and snow...

PM me. Make me an offer. They're taking up valuable space I need for modding the beast.

I don't want to insult you...but I do have a "buyer" for the pzeros, but it still isn't enough once all is said and done.
But honestly, I don't want to pull the trigger for a setup I'm not going to use until a year from now. I could total my r before then and then I'd be stuck with this setup

In which case Unhingd would buy them back at a very good price.


I've never tried clay bars, but I'm thinking I may give it a shot this spring.

Actually, this was the smoothest paint finish I have ever touched with a clay bar. It probably was unnecessary. I suppose if you did not get a good coat of wax on the car soon after taking ownership, the clay bar would improve the finish.
