    @riz_atx after the badges are removed since your truck is basically brand new, you should be able to slowly roll off the excess adhesive. For the tough ones that have been on a vehicle for years, I carefully use an electric drill with an eraser wheel, followed by light buff with 3m compound

    Nice! Very clean! I hated working on that car! I had oIL leaks like nobody's business, then they continued after trying to fix... had a buddy part out his 05 GLI and he sold me his Recarro seats and they were so badass. They hug you like a dream lol 20130131_171659.jpg

    That's not as bad as I was expecting. But I'd still be upset about it.

    i wonder if it's the location of the stings...wife caught a red wasp in her jersey about a year ago. got her 3 times on the rib cage. not much swelling after about 6hrs, but she damn near passed out once the adrenaline wore off.

    Construction on the freeway sucks.

    with the heat with the heat and then the rain it just keeps getting bigger. It starts all the way down at the bottom of the windshield and is up and curving around it's about 12 inches long right now.

    I'm calling my insurance when I get to work to see if they will cover it. They used to fix the chips in my car windshield for free at the dealer so I haven't had to ask about it in a while. It just keeps growing and right now I was sitting in line for coffee and it started raining and it spread some more.
