What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Yesterday, wash. Today, clay bar. Tomorrow, buff and wax. Stupid Missouri weather wouldn't let me do it all in one day. Rain, ugh.

Found some of the damage done by a stray piece of tire on the highway. It's a good thing I'm getting different side skirts.

I was driving to another city (250 miles away) this weekend to have my UpRev done. I purposely took back roads to open her up a bit. I hit a bird and its insides sprayed down the side of my driver side window. Nasty, but no damage done. There wasn't even a thud, the car just eviscerated him.

No.

Mild heating with a blow dryer can help quite a bit. Or -- just sit them in the sun for a bit.
