I take it out at least twice a month. Then as soon as I get back she gets a good wash in the garage.

This was taken just the other day. All clean again.

You can buy yellow/orange film from almost anywhere online. I had http://www.lamin-x.com/ on my headlights.

It kills me man, in all these years I have managed to keep the dings to only two and this one happened when my car was on stands in the garage when I was doing the engine replacement and turbo install.

Awe damn, that sucks. Should be an easy fix for a pro though without a repaint.

Finally the sun came out today and the streets are clean enough to drive on. Went for a quick cruise and found a large solar panel station just built.

Nice job with the matching fender strakes. Subtle but looks very different. And MUCH better than silver
