    How soon to apply wax

    I have heard a lot about Zaino and it was recommended to me that before I apply this I should clay bar the entire car even though its only a month old, comments? Also if Zaino is such a good product why does it take so many coats, everyone that talks about it says "I have 3, 4 even 5 coats" on...

    Help! 76 Vette Doors won't stay open.

    I replaced the springs in my 76 doors and its not that big a deal, get the tool its cheap and helps a lot. I can take some pics tonight if you still need them.

    Question: Correct Tire Pressure

    My 08 is set to the factory pressure but the dealership has filled the tires with nitrogen instead of O2, I have green valve stem caps to show that the tires have nitrogen in them. I took it back about a week after I picked it up because the DIC was showing two PSI higher on the left than on...

    Map lights

    I had the same problem on my 08 the second day I had the car home. It was the dimmer switch on the dash to the left of the steering column. It should push in to turn off or on, depending on the previous position, all the interior lights. This will override the DIC setting and the lights will...

    How soon to apply wax

    C5 the front on the GM ones do use the existing mount holes its just rear that require drilling holes (4 per side). I was not to excited about drilling holes in my 5 day old car but the holes just go into the inter fender well and not into the actual body panel so that made it a little easier...

Bonnell I would love to see some close up pics of your clear plastic protection and also your splash guards. I put on the GM Z06 type splash guards on and they look great blend right in...

    How soon to apply wax

    Hey anyone know of any reason to not wax the 08 right away? I remember back in the old days everyone said to wait a month or more to wax a new car but that can't be right any more, is it?

    Clear Plastic chip protects

    Thanks, I am still looking for a dealer that install's it in Oklahoma to get a estimate. I like the new black GM splash guards also although my dealer is having a problem getting a set. Don't like the idea of drilling holes in the body behind the rear wheels so may not go that route. Its...

    Clear Plastic chip protects

    The Mid American Motor works stuff is a eight piece kit which protects behind the front and rear wheels as well as the lower rocker panel in front of the rear wheel for 65$ but its a product called CLEARTASTIC which is not a 3M product as far as I can tell. The 3m product I believe is installed...

    Clear Plastic chip protects

    Has anyone used the stick on clear plastic chip protectors that go on behind and in front of the wheels? They even have them to go on the rear view mirrors. Do they work and stay on? If not what do you do for splash protectors, anything?
