I probably will scrap the GM badges, I'm sure they're much easier to get off than the huge dealer badge I had to scrape off the rear, PITA!

all i used was a blow dryer to heat it up and fishing line to saw through the glue stuff....used some bug and tar remover to get the rest of the sticky stuff off....i would say maybe 10-15 minutes tops.

The car looks great. I really like the front bumpers on the GXP's, and the wheels are awesome too. And you can't go wrong with father and son bonding like that.

Thanks fellas!!! I'm hoping that my little man will be a car guy, which I'm betting he will, it's in his blood!!

I need to snap some interior shots as well, not that you guys havent seen the interior of a GXP before, lol, but just to show how clean it is as well!
