They can, most won't as they too just want to write the parking ticket and move on.

Three times during my break-in period I have had Mustangs taunt me to race. Last night I had a little Econo sport decide he wanted to show me up on the freeway on ramp. Being out of my break-in now, I was happy to oblige him. I only went to 72 mph but it still took him until the next exit to catch up.

I dont know how you V8's do it. I would be in big trouble putting these punks in their place.

I'm loving her and when she's ready I'll be ready to push her further. Kids start school Tuesday so not sure if that means I'll drive her more or less. Definitely won't be dropping the kids off with her. That's door dings waiting to happen. Although I will eventually take her. I really can't wait to see the looks on people's faces when they see the bright blue camaro pull up in the school drop off lane lol. My neighbor told me the other day I was the most bad ass mom on the block. Of course I already knew that! I'll post pics of vanity plate when I get them on. Still risking it and leaving front plate off...
With my business travel it has been tough to get out of break-in. Sunday drives with the wife. That is the only reason I am out.

I did mine on my V6 at 900 miles. I was shocked how clean the oil was. I am checking at every fill up to see color change and level. Once i start seeing color or a couple more thousand, I will convert to synthetic. I want to make sure everything is worn properly and seated before converting to synthetic.

That's hella dark bro. Looks good though. How good did they get the rear around the edges? Tint didn't stick to the dots on mine but at least it's uniformly not stuck around the entire perimeter now. After install it was partially stuck down but lifted off as it cured.

Any bubbles that you can see? I've found a few and also a tiny spot where a speck of dust must have settled right before they put it down on the driver's window up near the bottom front corner.

None of those issues are enough for me to want them to re-do it because that would probably be a pain, but I know where they are so it's moderately annoying.

Also tried the resin fix for the tiny rock chip in my windshield this weekend. No help. Seems like it's either replace the whole windshield or live with it. Boo.

Thanks. No bubbles that I can see. The back window did rather well a few spots like you talked about where not completely down. Will watch it as it cures. Said they would redo it if need be.

For the record, most of those who want to challenge are beneath my notice. At least that's what I tell myself.

And bad ass mom in the Camaro, lol, love it.

And rebel with the no front plate. Get a stow and show front plate bracket. Two different ones. One is mechanical and hides then comes out at push of button. Other hooks into front recovery hook mount point and can be added/removed quickly easily for going back to stock look.

Where did you find the one that hooks into your recovery hook?
