Right. Quality paint is just so expensive these days. Nobody wants a Maaco or Earl Scheib paint job done on their Camaro.

To properly repaint my 2010 SS with 154k miles a different color would cost me as much or more than the car is worth. I would get a full wrap in a second though if I had the available money.

Beautiful day to drive the Camaro to work again today... We are ready for the 2wk Holiday break.

Car's been waxed as mentioned above (just dusty today)... all black trim has been wiped down with Back to Black (this stuff works great)... wheels and tires clean and shiny. Windows clean, Interior clean....... oil is fairly fresh... car continues to run like a champ at 163.6mi.

Could not be happier with this car at this point...

However, as someone previously stated a good paint job nowadays runs as much as, if not more than, the value of the car itself. I'm looking at getting a wrap simply to preserve my Red Hot color, as red is the quickest color to fade.

Pulled my stripes off about a month ago, finally got around to getting the new ones installed. I know not everyone is going to like the choice, but I am very happy with the result.

Well in your neck of the woods, I would imagine so. Though I did it due to the fact that I am a fan of the Oakland A's baseball team. The day I picked it up, I did have someone with a Packers window sticker give me a thumbs up though, lol.

Changed this little bastard out today. Tired of that moment when I let the clutch out and the car goes nowhere because the hill assist designers were high when they made it.
