to Comptech, although i think we'd have to keept it a bit small which i dont mind.
Third: Nov. 19th OR 26th: Which day would you fella's prefer to go to the AutoShow? I would like the 26th personally, because then I won't be out back-to-back weekends where i hsould be spending time w/the family But if the 19th is more suitable for everyone else, then I can try to make that work as well.
Post up your date of preference!

I tried a vinegar/water mix and even tried CLR. No luck. Looks like I can only make them less noticeable. I don't know what the heck I got on the car.
