Also just to show how well Mark gets it on the mark when vinyl wrapping and because I LOVE this photo. (Sorry Mark the back Chevy Emblem had to come off it was too much red in the back)

if the chrome underlayer starts peeling on mine again (I just had them replaced under warranty), I'll get Mark to wrap them...
He definitely does some nice work...

You can still see the chrome underlayer through the Vinyl if you don't go with a dark one. Looking at the badge that's now in my drawer I can see the underlayer is peeling.

when i was working as a detailer i found out that its actually objects in mirror are closer then they appear in french. and i think 99.9% of people take that sticker off. its annoying as fawk

The spoiler on there isn't a factory sedan wing but rather a variation of the low rise that is actually made for the coupe. I bought it to put on to replace the high rise. And yes, the CF hood is the one I bought from Tejay, they agreed to take both the wing and the hood and upped the trade-in by more than the total I paid for both, so that worked out.

It was an option for the SS Sedans at the dealer, is it not this one?

Hmm, I can see that it's a "bank repo", financed through carfinco - but wouldn't it state if there was a reserve?

Regal Auctions: Bank Repo: Repo Detail Page

go - and worst case scenario, you ended up getting out of bed too early... I mean, sign up as a bidder, and if the bidding is low - jump in... if it doesn't meet any reserve, then I guess it doesn't sell, and no harm done...

right?

I'd put my money on it being wayyyyy lower than that... I mean its at auction...

km's would help it's value for sure...

and who's to say that someone from carfinco isn't there ready to drop the reserve (to match actual bidding) to sell the car on saturday?
