Default Just picked up a 2010 SS
SO when i got it with only 8k miles it was completely covered in swirls.... and it looked completely horrible... so I had to deal with the 101 degree heat and bring out the PC..... and 2 orange pads later this is what I am working with

the only thing i'm not liking on that car is the rear bumper (not sure if its a ground effect or full bumper) otherwise that is one sweet car. good work on that detail man. mind if i ask what you picked the car up for with the supercharger and everything else?

very nice ride you picked up. I just don't care for the rear bumper. Just looks too overdone IMO.
