It’s the Friday night car meet for me my boy and our GT500. We went to look and got offered a spot. Didn’t take long for people to come running. My son on the right keeping a watchful eye on his inheritance.

I’m not a yellow guy but DANG that’s a sweet beast. How far you driving total? Looks great!
My appointment with 1 Armor is next Friday!
Ok I completely forgot to snap any pictures but I started about 0600.
1. Interior LED kit ✅ (could not find any socket for the glove box lite) there’s nothing in there I’ve been cheated.
2. Backup LED light ✅
3. Oil separator ✅ @Goose17 your videos on it was perfect and way better than the damn directions.
4. Steeda jacking rails ✅ unbelievable pain in the ass.
5. Steeda Cross member brace ✅
6. Steeda IRS brace (backordered)
7. Tossed the brisket on the Traeger ✅
Its 1430 and time for a cigar

All the parts accumulated over last week and there was a break in the heat so I figured it might be today or in 6 months when it’s not 110+ every damn day.
I’m planning on the resonator delete and IRS braces when I can get a slot in an air conditioned rent a lift shop. I did everything today on jack stands.
I used them both on my GT350 and they made a world of difference. I figured I’d give it a try on my GT500. So far the front brace is definitely doing it’s job because the back end is breaking loose way more often on my 15-20 minute ride. The IRS braces should stop the ass wanting to do donuts when I wanna go straight.
I’m getting 1 Armor done Friday, they are owned by XPEL. I’ve used 3m before on others. What I like about XPEL is the 10 year warranty against peeling, yellowing and cracking. Especially important in AZ where the sun fades cars like a Cobra fades dodges and chevy on the track.
Nope everything was way overpriced. Used GT350’s with 30k miles for $78,000. Extremely disappointing base GT500 $105,000 had 3k miles buy looked tore up from the floor up.
Ken I hav a real time tracker on it. If the moved it outside the parameters I had set I would have been alerted. They couldn’t possibly know where the tracker is or how to disable it so, I’m sure they didn’t go crazy driving it. Only the MPG was changed hence why I knew they were playing pedal games with it.
It’s literally that simple, I do a little pre wash to get anything like bird pooh off then foam it like crazy. After 5-10 minutes I wash it off including any that might have dried it reactivates and you’ll see bubbles. I use a Stanley small pressure washer for everything. Plug the cannon in and 4oz of bubble bath in the tank. Once it’s clean I use their drying cloth. Griots had a deal recently on the Cannon plus 2 bottles of wash and wax. I believe it was $80ish delivered after my Hagerty discount.
I follow up with the Sio2 ceramic coat spray wax every 3rd wash. I’ll use the speed shine the other two times. just gives that paint a sparkle. Those are optional and I do them because the dust doesn’t stick.
