Thank you, I have been gleaning some great information from this site. I sold a ‘14 Camaro SS to buy this fine ride and am really impressed thus far!

I just clayed the paint and currently trying to find out how to properly take care of the vinyl stripes.
The stripes have a definitely lack of durability. I PPF'ed the full front end, rockers, lower doors, etc, and paid an extra $275 to put XPEL Stealth (matte finish) on the entirety of the stripes. Matte erased swirl marks in the vinyl from the dealer, and made it look killer, IMO. No worries about chipping now, and for around the cost of replacing the stripes from BigWorm.

Got home today and new shifter knob was here. I DIdn't waste any time, went right out removed the stock knob and installed the new one. Had to take it for a test drive. Pretty good match to the Performance Blue too. So far so good, lol. Gotta give Chris at WC Lathe Works a well done for the excellent work. Recess for the reverse lockout is perfect.

Well, its been about 9 months since I purchased my GT350 and for some reason yes, an all black car is sexy as hell. Also gets dirty as hell in about .3 seconds. Being that I was laid off for a couple of months, you could say i had some quality free time. Now i have never wrapped anything and if you get close to the car it shows. I need some more practice and am not sure how much wrapping I will be doing in the future, because i was ready to pull my hair out. takes a lot of patience and definitely makes you appreciate the art of the people that do it professionally. Being my first go I was surprised in 2 ways. One i was surprised how good a lot of the car looks and considering right now its a 15 foot car. Just stand 15 feet away and it looks fantastic. Two i'm not surprise at the parts that look not too good. But either way I'm happy for now and will get some panels redone by a professional for sure!

Had some time this Saturday to work on the Shelby, installed what has to be one of favorite mods, the clutch pedal extension. It really improves the manual driving experience to be able to sit back away from the wheel and experience a shorter throw to the foot/leg. I really appreciate the easy clutch pedal in the 350 as my knees are not getting any younger..

should get some black caps to hide the license plate screws.... :-)
thanks... I will put that on my list. Had some caps for my last ride, but they would always fall off... need to find some sturdy ones
