During the cat and mouse game of one salesman not bringing the car back to the dealer to steal the sale, and the other trying to keep us on the hook and not get any more mad than we already were he had some lackey roll out one of those 9-7Xs from the back lot that someone traded in that week.
He was really excited about the position of the ignition key. We were less excited about getting the bait and switch on a rebadged Chevy that still had the "GM" logo on the front quarter panel.

Before - Style 73 wheels
Attachment 381407
After - Style 68 wheels
Attachment 381408
Looks sharp. I actually like both.
Will use 73s in winter and 68s rest of time. 73s are rife with curb rash, but who cares?Quote:

Color me surprised. I literally bought it as a disposable vehicle, being a Chevy and all. I had no faith, but here I am 10 years and 150K miles later. Huh... I wouldn't have believed it back when I bought it.Quote:

Any of you guys had a car repainted? My clear coat is fucked and so far the bids are $5k to $6k to repaint the R. Ouuuch.
Just wrap it for 2-3k.Quote:

Of course, it will look like this after a while: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bF34g7woHdM
The paint on my RR is so shot it's down to bare metal in a few spots and no clear coat for almost the full length of the roof on the drivers side. Meh, whatever, I'll hit it with a rattle can and some spray lacquer before the winter and call it good. I like the idea of bedliner though. Ya think a Range Rover would look good that way?
Holy Shit :eek: If I paint my car I think it could sell close to this. Mind = blown https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2006-volvo-v70r-30
Very happy with the way my 08 Saab has kept the paint nice. My 2014 jetta has the worst paint ever, don't get me started on how thin the roof metal is. Fucking car wash sounds like the roff is going to cave in.Quote:
