Nice I was thinking of doing this. How hard is it to remove the plasti-dip without ruining it on the letters?

Changed cabin filter, wiper blades, oil and installed a new shift knob. Nothing great. Just general maintenance.

Wash, clay bar, polish, wax. Took almost four hours...

Use a toothpick to get it out of the letters. Very easy and won't tear the plasti-dip

Awesome thanks!

Struggled putting on the GM blade/Dovetail spoiler. The template they provide is very poor for hole alignment on the quarter panels. Kept having to enlarge hoes. Good thing the foam around the bolts are pretty big and I also put some silicon caulk around the bolts also. Wish I wasn't so cheap and just paid he $119 the dealer wanted to install.

How about a picture of that new shift knob?

I'm thinking of doing something to change it up myself and I want some idea's...I'm currently considering the manual dust boot as Well, I saw that someone did that and it does give it a fresh look like on the caddy and other luxury cars...

Got underneath and cleaned the grime off and waxed the underside

It finally quit raining for the first time in almost over a month. It has been over 5 weeks since I was able to wash my 1SS. Spent all day washing and detailing it. Topped it off with some newly acquired Americana and she looks great!

I do see a complete 2 day detail coming in the future. I'm probably at the 6 to 7 month mark of my sealant being on the car and it is probably time for a strip wash, a full clay, and then some minor polishing.

Yeah its super easy. It will cut itself around the letters as you pull and simply use a tooth pick for the centers.
