It will show much more dirt than a white one. I don't think Brown Bear would want that through their car wash.

Take about fast turnaround. Unfortunately I can't get back down there until next week to pick it up.
FWIW -- I asked Powdervision if I paid cash, could we "dismiss" the tax... and he did... not a huge savings but for some reason that still feels like a victory...

3rd this, they are also the only shop I will go to for wheel alignment & corner balancing. To bad they are not down the street anymore...

Won't be buying a CGT anytime soon. If they continue to go up then don't need one and until they are priced at the $275k they are worth then I won't own one.

Got the bar back from powder coating today. Total cost $75 cash.

Here are a couple of pictures. Pretty much the same pic, but different lighting. Once I can get the car into the daylight, I will get some good pics of how good it looks.

The flash really relects off the white in this one.





Just have the drivers seat to put back in and it's ready for the road again.
