Reminds me that I keep forgetting to get the title of this thread updated with that :-) I changed it in the first post a long time ago, but that didn't update the way it shows for everyone....oh well.

I am definitely in for one.

BTW, paypal for $15 sent!

Thank you SO much for working on this, I know it's been a chore.

Let me know if you need more details but I think my paypal message was clear.

Thanks!

So after alot of Searching the closest color I have found for Vinyl to match the Grand Sport strip is Asure blue from Oracle, Number 052. If anyone has anything different let me know.

Default Rimblades

So this Friday afternoon I parked my car for over 72 hours and did the Rimblades and some other items to the car. Followed all details to the T. I installed the Rimblades and waited, and checked them and waited and check them again. They looked great, added alot of color to a gray area. Well yesterday Evening I went to eat and when I got out of the Car one of my blades we hanging, 1 was completely gone. And the other 2 were still on. Very discreet appointmented about these. I loved them. Does anyone knows if there is a better product for this type of MOD or what? Please help

Same issue here, even tried a second box with same result. Another poster in this thread mentioned this kit.http://www.tapeworks.com/stripeitall/ I ordered a kit along with stripe it tool on Monday; hopefully it will be a lot more secure.

Default GSCE Award

The GSCE was a hit at the local car show last weekend. They had 125 cars, 25 Corvettes and my car won the "Mayor's Choice" award for best in show. The trophies are really cool as one of the guys in the car club made them all by hand from beer cans from the local craft brewery. Very cool.
