Is this what happens to the permagrin when you overmod your vette??
Hope this isn't the long term affect from having a permagrin??

Got it when I picked up my '02 2 months ago, haven't been able to get rid of it, I was getting worried but the wife said it's o.k. that it actually looks good on me. Sometimes it starts to fade but comes back real strong when I go out to the garage.

Anyone who doesn't have Permagrin needs to be tested for a pulse
