ManicMechanic Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 Much cleaner...But expect a lot of dings due to retards that have no respect for others. Quote
94 olds vert Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 Does look good. And x2 on the door dings. Quote
jake91 Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Posted November 28, 2009 my car already has a bunch that the bump strip failed to save it from LOL Quote
jeremy Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 much much cleaner looking with that bump strip gone Quote
GPX Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 That's awesome that your mom let's you park your car in your bedroom! Quote
1990lumina Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 Cool. Lol the Lumina got debadged through the car wash a few years ago now LOL! Quote
Twenty Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 Looks good, I also like the matching W-Body sticker. Quote
RobertISaar Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 Cool. Lol the Lumina got debadged through the car wash a few years ago now LOL! that counts? i guess the MC got partially debadged throughout the years then... Quote
jake91 Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Posted November 28, 2009 here are good pics note the discoloration on the pass. side the door was repainted at one point and they painted around the bump strip Quote
94 olds vert Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 It looks great, With the exception of the passenger door. Quote
jake91 Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Posted November 28, 2009 thanks hopefully that fades out eventually at least in the meantime it looks better than it did before Quote
94 olds vert Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 Have you tried to buff out that area of the door? Quote
jake91 Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Posted November 28, 2009 yeah. polishing compound, wax, claybar Quote
94 olds vert Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 I'm surprised that didn't take care of the difference in color. I think you should update your sig now. Quote
jake91 Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Posted November 28, 2009 im going to wait till i get my windows tinted, and my lights smoked Quote
94 olds vert Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 im going to wait till i get my windows tinted, and my lights smoked Quote
jake91 Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Posted November 28, 2009 yeah i know a girl that can get me tinting for 100 and a guy that will do the lights for a $20 cost of supplies, but it takes time to get them ive been waiting for 3 months Quote
tdvs Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 Had a debate about this a while back, and you decided against it. What FINALLY changed your mind? Besides a hair? It does look much better . Even the pass door looks better, but unfortunately, it's wishful thinking that it will fade in with time. Maybe a nice pinstripe would draw attention away from it Quote
jake91 Posted November 28, 2009 Author Report Posted November 28, 2009 oh i had been wanting to remove it for awhile but was scared it wouldnt come off clean since i took of that small piece and it didnt com off well but over time that pce has cleaned up nicely and faded correct ly so i thought id take more off and the next piece came of clean so i just went at it, and then when i was done with that i decided to rip off my dohc badges Quote
intern8tion9l Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 looks great, now do the cutlass supreme badges Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 looks great, now do the cutlass supreme badges x2 I think they look out of place now. Quote
