Ozzy, I'll be content just driving this weekend. It's been nasty and rainy in N. Va. for some time now. Saturday may not reach over 50 degrees, but at least the sun will be out. Makes me envious of characters living in Hawaii, California, or Texas, hell even Louisiana is warm, right Tram?

We've been warm enough out here, but the rain has been pretty constant up until the last few days. After that first day in the rain, I don't wanna take her out in it again...not because I'm one of those "it never sees rain" types, but because I was fishtailing up the driveway and got pretty close to the rock wall...no sense taking that kinda risk. If I do get caught in the rain with it I'll probably just leave it on the street next time.

Cool I've got my badges. Just waiting to wash the car again before I slap them on. Haven't ordered another set of fender stripes for attempt #2 yet

Both sides. I thought they were going to be smaller, so I had a different idea of what I might do with them. But they'll still look good on the cowl

Do you mean rocker panel? If so, I did it in the driveway, and took maybe hour and 15 minutes. Just jack up one side at a time, and use the slender clip puller, and have a long flat head screw driver handy..I have pics on my profile.

Not I. Hopefully going to meet this pro racer guy. Wants to see the car. His dad has a lift. Maybe I can get the skip shifter in instead of working without my hands.

They're big. I'd already bought the SS billet emblem for my grill so I kinda have a bit of a design metaphor tug going on. I think nothing on grill, nothing on the back but a small 1LE on back in place of SS and the large 1LE on the cowl is ideal. But purists will say the 1LE should go unmarked. I don't care and I like them on the cowl. I also like the new corvette's square tail lights.

Before I knew how big the badges were, I was thinking I'd replace the rear SS with one, and maybe put the other up on the front of the hood on the driver side. I didn't know about the history of being unbadged, so I still don't care lol. But along the cowl will still look good, and I might still swap or just remove the the rear SS. The front one is already gone, don't like the white letters on the at.

You guys see this? 9 second option.

First is normal. Second is competition mode with two taps of TC button. This also enables launch control. This mode turns TC off 100% and puts stabilitrac into track mode. Third mode is hold TC button for a few seconds, I think 9. This turns everything off and ur steering wheel will stiffen up more.
