Default Big Dog

My wife bought this for me at the Big Dog Store.



I don’t have the heart to tell her that I’m not sure if I will put it on the Vette? .... I guess I’ll put it on the back for a little while.

Peace ... Ben, OH

That's a good idea. If I tell her that we will share it and I'll put it on her car first. I don't know if I could to that with a straight face?

Did you know you can't take things back to Big Dog Store? They have a sign up that says "No returns, refunds, or exchanges". I don't buy stuff at stores that have that policy.

Like someone else posted it is the thought that counts, now it is your turn to think of a way of not putting it on the Vette. Good Luck.

Here's what you do. Go out in the garage and crack it in half. Go back inside and tell her it broke when you were installing it and blame poor quality and workmanship on chinese products. Tell her to take it back and get her money.

Sorry man...don't mean to jack your thread here...but I couldn't help but notice how clean your rims look. I have the same rims, have tried different products to try and make them shine, but have been unsuccessful. I was wondering if you could help me out and let me know what product you use to clean 'em up?

I wish I could tell you a big secret but all I use is NXT Mequiars. I'm sure there are others that work as good if not better. This is the first wax I've tried that comes off without any powder type residue.

Peace .. Ben, OH
