No he's in the right section. Fart-turd should be able to fix him up. We all know that is his #1 priority. Bling before 10 seconds. Maybe one of those C6/BMW/or other non-c5 owning performance related persons could help him too.

lol at the replys...


windex is probably the best thing to keep it clean and shiney, then coat it with a little wax.

i personally like a little bling on my race car......


ran 11's when 11's werent the norm





mid 10 sec m6 trans am...a little bling here and there...


and the rolling juke box as some like to reference it....

The best product I use for chrome, windows, and to wax my car is FW1. It comes in a spray can. It is a cleaner and wax all in one. I know what you're thinking..."how well does that work?" I wash the car first then spray this on and wipe off. It is PHENOMENAL.
