I need the two rear 2008 polished forged Gumby wheels in mint condition, size 19" x 10", RPO code is QG7.
I may consider a full set, front and rear, if they are perfect.
Please let me know.
Hi, all:
I'm looking at orbital polishers. Flex and Cyclo are close in price, and I'm wondering if anyone has experience with either, or maybe even both. Please let me know. :confused
Thanks,

I had my handles replaced about two months ago, and it's been silent ever since. The tech who replaced them was kind enough to give me the rest of the tube of SuperLube. When I got the receipt for the warranty work (no cost to me), it showed $17.00 as the cost of the lube.

I'm sorry to hear this, 76okievette!
I had no issues from my dealer. They ordered the new roof handles without question, the handles came in, I gave them a copy of the TSB, and they installed them and lubed everything exactly as the TSB said.
One month later, the roof is absolutely silent...
Peter:
The ZP's are on the Tire Rack website, although in short supply. My Long Beach Discount Tire shop said they could get them in three days, and that it would be $1800 for a full set, installed.

I agree. I recently did the full Zaino program: wash with Dawn, Zaino AIO for a base, 2 coats of Z-5 Pro with ZFX, 1 coat of Z-2 Pro with ZFX, Z-6 detail in between, and a final spray with Z-8 Grand Finale Spray. I will do 3 or 4 more coats of Z-2 Pro over the next few weeks, then ZCS Clear...
Here's Rick's 2008 JSB/Cashmere Z-51 Coupe
I haven't seen a JSB coupe yet, so here are pictures of mine, after a two day Zaino program. I'll post some more pictures in my album on my member's profile.

Poping/creaking noises from the front latches and/or the rear posts and guides. There are numerous threads on this forum and nearly every other corvette forum. You will find several here at Corvette Action Center, also Corvette Forum, and CorvetteMechanic. c4c5specialist (our guardian angel)...
So did I, and I have forwarded it to the general manager at my dealership, asked him to order the parts for my C6, and to email me when they arrive so I can set an appointment. I'll let you all know.....

Are there any optional wider tire sizes that can be run on stock 2008 C6 Coupe rims (front: 18" x 8 1/2"; rear: 19" x 10") without clearance or other problems? Stock sizes are 245/40-18 front and 285/35-19 rear.
Thank you! Rick :w Remember to always wave!
I'm sorry it didn't work, but I notice you have a 2005 C6, and it is possible that you have other roof issues besides the one that the "E" clips fix. I suggest that you review all of the posts in this thread, and well as the posts in the thread about Roof Noise in the C6 General Information...
Is the NPP dual-mode exhaust stainless steel or chrome, and is it clear coated? I'm asking so I can figure out the right metal polish to use on the tips. Thanks to all. Rick :confused
Here's everything on the "E" clip and Astroglide procedures:
Astroglide: Read Posts #12 & 15 above.
"E" clips: (1) make sure that the "E" clips are 5/32", and not another size, which are often mixed in the bins as they were at my Lowe's. There is a link to a photo of the "E" clips at Post...
c4c5:
Can you be a little more specific for me so I know what to ask my dealer to check and do? The "E" clips seem to have fixed my roof panel noise (see my post #50 above) but your caution above makes me want to be sure. My dealer has not advised me of any PI's (what's this?) or TSB's for my...
Yes, it is a shame, especially since it cost $1.24 at my Lowe's, and in GM quantity it would probably cost 15 cents. Every dealer should automatically install the "E" clips before delivering any C6 coupe to a new buyer, if Bowling Green doesn't do it.
As a new member of Corvette Action Center...
SUCCESS! "E" clips work! No more noise!
Yesterday the car sat in the sun on a 90 degree day while at work. No noise whatsoever on the way home, even over bumps! Do the "E" clip repair! See the photo of where to install them in Jason's reply to my query. :beer
