Default Bling Prep'n

Since the GTO will have it's new hood next week, and the car shows are getting ever closer, I went ahead & ordered my very own Porter Cable buffer & a few extra pads today. So you have 1 less household to support Steve.

After all these bling mods I'm doing to the engine bay, I need to spruce up the paint too.

PS Todd - do you have a dab of white rouge I cold borrow sometime? I need to polish a small bracket for the new catch can & all I have is tripoli. If not, I'll order another tube.

You might actually not have gained any ground Steve. I might want to borrow it here shortly too. I have to wait for my paint to finish curing, then remove the decals, then I want to give it "the treatment" before I put the new decals on it.

Hell no! I am not helping you make your car look better than mine, lol.

Just call me on my cell when you want to pick some up.
