Wowzers! Your rad cover looks great! I like that.
Looking forward to seeing pix of the hood spears also. Kind of a "giddy" feeling awaiting the next mod, isn't it? hehe. When I got my rallies painted on, I could hardly wait to see them! By far my best mod to date as far as "bling" goes. Still haven't mentioned new wheels to DH just yet. Mums the word...for now. Then again, if I'm going to upgrade to a 2SS in a couple of years, do I really NEED new wheels? aarrgghh! Just another angle to consider oao

No news; My hopes are dwindling more each day.:(
But thanks for asking though. hey Diane...good to hear from ya! I had perused that thread a few days ago; got a chuckle or two. DH said as a little boy his grandfather used to tell him a sure sign of Spring is "when you hear the red birds singing." Well, we have at least 3 male Cardinals who must really think it's Spring...man, are they cuttin' up for the females! I could sit for hours and listen to them, the Mourning Doves, and the House Finches. Soooooo, with that being said, the bird that I LOATHE the most, the Grackel, has started his mating ritual, as well. Stupid birds! You can guess where this little rant is leading... Yes, at work, there are some trees at the end of each row, curb side. I like to park in an end spot. The Grackels decided this was the day to start building their nests, and when I came out to leave work, my car had been "bombed" a few times. Grrrrrr. I should have known it was only a matter of time, and that time would be sooner rather than later. Lesson learned! I drove straight home, drew up a bucket of hot water with Adam's suds, and gave my beloved Wild Thing a good bath! I will probably not drive it the rest of the week, as it is mostly blowing dust with our high winds, and supposed to rain, starting Thursday. Blah! I'll close in saying, today, a 12 ga shotgun sure would've come in handy! I'm not a violent person, but I sure would have liked to made some feathers fly! oao

Sad to hear about the "bombs" on your car. That really does suck!
We have pollen starting up here. I noticed a very fine layer of yellow on the car today. Really shows up on black! No news yet? Well, our company takes forever to hire someone. I'm sure the prospective employees are wondering if they will ever get that call. Hang in there. Starting the hood spears countdown. Now wondering if I should ask them to also do the calipers. It's the same red paint I think. Hmmmmm.

Ahhh....lovely pollen...more like ahhh-chooo! I'll bet it does show on the black. I love a black car, but boy are they hard to keep clean. Seems like every little speck of dust just stands out BIG time! Oh absolutely paint those calipers!! Go for it! That would look super sharp, IMO. There is a pic here on C5 of a white Camaro with white spoke-like wheels with the spokes rimmed in red. For the life of me, I can't find it. It was one of the first threads I read last summer when I joined. Those wheels look so sharp; definitely would paint my calipers red if I go with the white rims. The job is still listed on the website, so I would take that to mean it's not been filled. Dunno...I just really felt pretty good about the interview, but now, not so much.:( Oh well, things happen for a reason, I guess. I just REALLY wanted that 8 minute commute time! oao

Clear bra paint protection film is next on the agenda. ASAP. Major bathroom renovation[master bath], and updates in the other 2, pretty soon as well. Definitely will be a distraction. I'll just keep looking. I hate group interviews; kinda feels like you're waaay out numbered! LOL. oao

Yeah!! They are really victory red, but photos always make that look orange.

I probably shouldn't say this out loud, so I'll whisper it...but I think perhaps Spring is here! We hit around 80 degrees today!! The Redbuds, our state tree, are just almost in full bloom. The birds are totally convinced it's spring, so there's lots of nest building going on! Now, we've seen some pretty brutally cold Aprils, that killed our peach and plum crops, so I'll just go with I'm cautiously optimistic that Spring may actually be here. I noticed as I got in my car to come home from work, I have tiny little dots of tree sap!! Dadgumit! Soooo that means another bath for Wild Thing before the Cars & Coffee meet this Saturday. Note to self...order more Adams carwash soap! I have the headache from heJJ, so I think I'll go put the icepack on my neck and turn the lights off. goodnight to all oao
