    Now I know why the grill emblems for the old Cruisers keep running out of stock , thought they looked familiar . Need to replace mine - 38yrs hasn't been exactly kind to it ....

    2004 was a cavalier i had same cracks as 5 other cavalier kids in my highschool. Only on a 5 inch wide strip up front. 98 s10 was brittle as hell everywhere. And most recently my 98 yukon was fine for a while but i drove around with some mud tires that didnt wanna balance and CRACK it bounces from the vibes too much and cracked 3 spots.

    Also all 3 were florida vehicles in central florida.

    Why didn't you leave them on the truck. Isn't that the point of going all derp instead of actually painting them?

    I've used 303 for years, but recently stopped using it on my dash. 303 seems to evaporate and a film forms on the inside of the windshield. It's difficult to remove and smears badly when trying to clean it off. Since switching to Armor All on the dash, I haven't had this problem.

    Anyone else experience this? 303 is great stuff for protecting plastics, this is just my experience with using it on the dash.

    A coral snake is the only snake i would even try to call poisonous. Since its saliva is what intoxicates you.
