solstice chica posted a nice photo of sol cruisin's gxp on the truck carrier.
here's another one that shows more of the surroundings: still at the railyard!!!!
Sol Cruisin, Can you tell me if there are dimples in the paint where the rear arrow used to be? They are pretty hard to see unless you look close...
I just went out to the garage in the dark and shined a flashlight onto the area and looked very closely at the reflection to see if it changed (it would if there was a dimple to change the angle) and it did not. I also felt it and there are no dimples on my back panel where the arrow was.

I did notice on just about every sol i looked at so far there are dimples on the rear panels where the platsic rear fender meets the side metal panels. At the seems on the right and left sides of the car it seems to be from were it was put together. Just thought it was kind of weird. Like 4 or 5 little dimples on each side has anybody else noticed this.

OK, who is the guy standing by the car? If this is you 5907, you need to jump in the car, drive it like you stole it, get the "perma-grin" going and re-take the picture.
This is different than what I talked about above. I call what your seeing the riple effect and it is on every Sol and Sky. Not sure why GM was not able to make it more smooth...

Temple,
Do you have access to some kind of a graphics program?? Pls post a pic with an arrow pointing to what you are referring to. I can't see it.

Just noticed your signature. What all did you debadge? I was planning to do this myself if I order one but was afraid there may be locating holes in the body panels?
TIA,

Thanks man, I plan to do the same...may even take off the front badge

It is VERY easy to see on Mysterious. Go out and look at where the rear bumper meets the trunk deck lid. Look at it from the side and you will see the ripple that I am talking about.

Starting with Mysterious ...Hey Bird, where are ya?
Where are all the other colors?
Have there been any Pure GXP's on the forum?
I originally had Mysterious on my order. Then switched to Sly and now I'm planning on switching back to Mysterious. Having seen both, I think the black grill looks much better on the Mysterious. My only holdout is not having seen a Pure GXP.
