Plasti dipped the rear end today. It's a 20 footer...from 20 feet away it looks good. I have experience with plasti dip. The problem is I could not find pin stripe painters tape ANYWHERE. Home Depot, Lowes, auto part stores, Sherwin Williams. I had to buy actual pin stripes for a car. It worked great but damn I couldn't peel it off. It ended up jacking up the edges. I'll look online for actual tape and try again. FML

Today I installed the iSimple from DD Mods. Super easy and works great. I love it.
I also installed a short throw shifter and new ****. It's a universal style ****. I like the way it looks but something isn't quite right. It sits too high, I need to play with it some more.
The shifter has some play. You can twist the shaft side to side about .5". I need to check on that too.

Got the C6 wheels yesterday and had the TPMS switched from the wagons to the new ones. It's still on jack stands until I decide on how to mount the rear wheels. Not sure if I want to use spacers/longer studs or use adapters. Pics will be coming.

Today I hoped to get my vararam installed. Nope. Never even opened the box.
I changed the oil, transmission fluid, rear diff fluid, painted my calipers, and removed the side moldings. All Mobil 1 synthetic.

Congratulations on the new car. It looks nice and getting better.
You have really been busy. Most people make mods over a period of time, but it seems like you have already made a lot of nice mods in the first few weeks you've had it.
Good Job!
