Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

try a credit card to scrap it up, start on the inside so if it does scratch its under the spoiler.

maybe some soapy water too to help the card slide better.

Alright I will try that... I took the bulk of it off with a razor *shutter* but there was enough on the and with a steady hand I didn't scratch anything and now it's just this supper thin layer.

They do look bad with nothing up there. Wet the remaining RTV with WD-40 and give it a few minutes if its stuck then try a plastic scraper. If that stuff attacked the paint, all you'll gonna be able to do is level it out and put black over it.

Flipped my squares and then went up the road and filled the car with tire smoke. Woot! Forgot how much that helps. Thanks for the motivation from Kyle to do that, and to him and Scotty for lighting a fire under my butt to get some intake noise happening. Signature has been revised to reflect the current state.

Would a rubber eraser deal on a drill work for that rtv? Just an idea.

How about clay bar?

This is what I would try first if it was handy. RTV has some wicked solvent in it though, I hope it didn't eat into his clear.

Some clay bar might stick to it and pull it off, but thats gonna trash the clay if it does.

Thank you guys so much for the help. I'm doing it right now and then wd40 and a credit card is working perfectly I love this place Haha

We started at about 2:30, stopped to eat, then the motor was out about 6:30. I broke nothing surprisingly and I didn't cut myself or anything. It's been a weird ass day for me.

I smashed my forearm pretty good today. I wanted to go over the brakes real quick because my inspection is due this week. I got some shimmy in my rotors so I will probably end up replacing front rotors, though they are not necessary to pass inspection. When I was breaking the bolts loose on the driver's front caliper the bottom bolt was a little tight and I was pulling up rather hard and when it broke free it smashed my forearm into the bottom of the splash shield. I have a nice mark on my arm. Front brake pads are still excellent. I need to do rear brakes though. I only pulled off driver's rear and the pads are almost gone.

Smashed top of my hand against corner of cradle trying to break crank bolt loose...done for today hand hurts like hell !

Bought ANOTHER grand prix lol. This one is n/a and gold and it has a brown interior so needless to say it will be a quick fix and flip.
