I do like the rockers you all are putting, but I do think the part that needs painting needs painting. By the way what vender offers these painted?

I must admit your car looks better with black wheels. Does it stay warm enough in your area, to keep them on all year? Also, I've never used claybar. I thought it was used to remove old residue from cars. Is it really beneficial on new paint? Thanks!

Go to adamspolishes.com and they have alot of youtube videos that explain the different benefits of the different detailing processes. In the clay video they explain that rail dust can be embedded in a new car's paint and won't be removed with normal washing. I learned a lot from those videos and plan on buying a full kit from them for my 1LE. I've always been just a plain wash and wax man for my other camaros but I'm going to put some more time and effort into my 1LE to help protect the paint. Lots of detailing threads on this site that are very helpful as well.
