I walked over to mine, looked at the car and just said "Rain", A fender did in fact, melt of right there

Congrats on disproving a myth.

For anyone who says, "My Vette has never seen a drop of rain" - remember, BG subjects EVERY new Vette to a monsoon-level rain test prior to shipping to check for leaks. EVERY Vette has been rained on, and one has yet to melt.
