It's not bolted in place, but it stays.
I loosened the 2 fender bolts and slid it up under just enough to hold it when I tightened them back down.
Took me about an hour.
I'm not very patient when I'm in the middle of a project t and waitingng for painted pieces to dry!

Spray paint a toilet seat and sit on it. All the hot water and soap in the world won't wash that off your ass.

I took her to my dealership for a few services that were bugging me. I know the owners manual doesn't recommend anything major until 45,000. They actually suggested just an oil change and tire rotation, so i know my dealership wasn't trying to squeeze extra money out of me. But i finally decided I would rather pay the money and feel good knowing it was done.

They did the oil change and tire rotation (for free) but also did service/flushes on the transmission, fuel injection, brake and coolant. To some, this may seem like wasted money (i would have to agree had I purchased this vehicle brand new and was the only owner). But for me, I felt so much better leaving the dealership!

I would of spent the $350 when i got the car if i knew i was going to feel this kind of relief!!!!

Took the Vert out for it's monthly spin. Ran A/C on way & top down on way back. I run the A/C monthly to keep it in tip top form.

Picked up from shop after TR6060 to 4L80e swap. Looking forward to taking it to the track this weekend. I expect the ET to start with a 9.

Swapped out L99 exhaust for LS3 exhaust. Did not get tips back on, so it is straight piped and way too loud. Also dropped of Eibach springs at powder coating.
Next tint windows and get new GFX kit painted and installed.

Haven't been out in nature much, but wouldn't mind getting some hiking in at some point.

13,200. I'm the 2nd owner that bought in May 2015 when it had 10,503. The pic is from last summer.

Dropped it off for the 2012 Torque Convertor problem, they confirmed the problem and ordered a new one.

Called GM again in regards to the COA. Called Pirelli in regards to dry rotted Trofeos.

Can't do much hiking for the next few months due to all the damn meds the Dr's have me currently on.
What I CAN do is stand in a mountain stream with a pair of waders, a good cigar and a fly rod.
Now THAT'S my idea of therapy!!!!
