You're more brave than I. Nothing looks classier than black when its clean but so hard to keep clean. I had a black truck once and swore never again...but a black vette is a little different, very sexy in black. Thank you all again for the welcoming comments. Ive cleaned and waxed her, treated all leather surfaces, installed C6 shift **** which feels great, shortly antenna installed, clutch, brake, and steering fluids changed, BG fuel additive which i love, and fixed radio bezel that was a little out on upper right corner. Seems like a normal issue but much more satisfying being fixed as from factory. Now, coolant and plugs.

How hard are plugs on these...i haven't looked yet. My c4 was a pita...how are these to do a change?

Thanks again C5 bretherin...

Ben
