Default Using Z06 GM Points

Just recently received my 500,000 GM points so use some to purchase the new wicker bill and a car cover.

When mine hit my account, i'll be getting an extended warranty. Usually i don't buy them, but when they're "free" it's a no-brainer. The remainder will be used for oil changes etc.

When you say new wicker bill, are you referring to the new clear piece that goes in the middle?

I'm thinking of doing that as well in about 2-3 years on the warranty.

I’ve gotten Z06 car cover and black lug nuts so far.

Next on my list is the Carbon Fiber cross brace and grill guards.

That looks very cool. If you don't mind me asking, do you use the cover for visual interest, cool factor, or do you consider it for protection? I'm thinking about getting one purely for how it looks, although I wonder if it would be pia removing. Thanks.

I would think so as they are about the same dimensions, I guess what would really matter is if you have a wing/high spoiler.
