My GXP

Post by techweenie »

Thanks. I try to keep both looking good, but i am cursed with the ZR2. Dents and scratches keep appearing out of nowhere, plus I was rear ended by a suburban. Luckily it only dented the bumper.

You're the second person to mention that. They're whatever came with the car. They seem a tad bit noisy on the highway, but otherwise no complaints.

I approve!
I had little doubt that this was the right color for a GXP when I was looking for mine!

Mine too brother, it's a shame. I try to wash it about 3 times a week, but with the temperatures now, I'm afraid of doing more damage than good. :dontknow:
