When you can't murder it out... going matte is the next best thing...
You'd really expect any less from me? haha

dupli-color clear temporary spray on bra to be exact lol
Dupli-color Shield.
For when i drive the 5 hours from NY to NJ, or back, the bugs are horrible and really beat up the front bumper.
With this spray on protection, it takes the brunt of the abuse and then just easily washes off.
I spray it on before the trip and remove it once i get to my destination.

1. Why is there a bunch of stuff on that Vette?
2. The V looks really really good.
3. You never told me on the feel of it. Top gear said it felt cheap does it?

1. The vette is/was an old project which is slowly getting parted out
2. Thank you, I just need to do clears up front.
3. It is still the 1st gen CTS, which isn't a "high-end" car but definitely feels good and a blast to drive. Better than my old 95 STS.
