Besides chopping it, what else are they going to do?

Oh, and one more thing: since you're a Merc owner, do you know why some front grilles - the horizontal chrome part - have thin or thick vertical "teeth"? Is it a model variation or aftermarket stuff?

I am going to do a flat black paint. two tone interior maybe Red and white.
the bet thing though..... a Z06 LS7 engine!!!!!
kind of rat rod-street rod... mild custom. FOR DRIVING. NOT for Storing!

The vertical teeth were and are an aftermarket add on.

Man, you're as I am. A while back, I started a thread on Ferrari Chat to see if people drove their Ferraris in the rain. Guess what? About 70% of them didn't, citing stupid and unbelievably pathetic excuses.

You live once. Live it right!

just today my buddies were amazed/joking that i drive my Denali with 24" Davin Signature limited editon wheels in the rain (#32/50sets total),
they retail for about 2900ea, and the tires are 2000/set . . . whatever. Rain is water.. you use water to wash the car right?

when i had my 360 i knew i would have it for 2-3years so i drove it in the rain all the time!!!

drive it like you stole it !
