It was just some dirt on there...lol. It runs great, especially with the Wester's Garage tune. No limp mode, more power, and it is consistent power...I was at 18psi all the way through 4th gear.

Great seeing you guys today! Unfortunately, on my way home I stopped at Target and despite parking way out away from the store, I came back to find the mother of all door dings. Guess it's off to the body shop again!

Reed sorry to hear about that. I feel like I jinxed you since I complemented on how good your car looked. Hope there is a quick and easy remedy.

It couldn't have been an Escalade. It looks like it had to be something pretty small. These things happen- I'm not going to stress out over it or anything. I have to remember it's just a car.

So within one minute you chose someone else to harass into buying a GXP? Impressive!

Thanks a lot, pep!

Sarge, if anything it would be a Sky RL. I'm pretty sure that's not going to happen for a few years, though. Apparently, they'd want me to pay for it.
