Default What did you do this weekend....

Ok, finally put in the BLKWNG CAI I purchased on this forum over the winter, also installed my carskinz (Blk/Blue) shift boot, e-brake, and console cover. I also installed my fog screens and just took the car for a looooong ride. And now, because it's black I get to wash it! At least I'll get to try out my wolfgang spritz sealant I got from autogeek with the wolfgang fuzion. Love the fuzion by the way, thanks go to Scott from autogeek for the recommendation! Only thing missing was a car show, or better yet an all corvette show! I'll have to wait a couple weeks for the Corvettes in the Dells show!

Stood on my deck and watched the lake swell from almost three days of rain.

110 mile cruise in the Vette with my wife throughout the wine country of eastern Long Island, sat around the pool, ate burgers and franks and drank some beer.

Any pics of the mods? Try some RejeX on your Black Vette.

A cruise in, a car show, a monster gun shop, Zaino'd the truck and just got home from a family BBQ. The bad news, back to work tomorrow!

PS gave the dog a bath too...

Used Rejex last summer. It was ok, prefer the look of carnuba. I'm actually using the Rejex as a base for the Fuzion, looks great.

Worked three twelve hour shifts, but since my job is supporting deployed soldiers around the world, I didn't mind given it is Memorial day weekend.

NOTHING!! It was nice to have some time off and relax a little. The Vette is on the lift waiting for my headers to get back, so that was kind of a bummer, but other than that it was nice

Watched it rain and searched for some new wheels on the internet. Thinking of how fortunate I am to be able to do that. Thanks to all who have and are serving our country.
