I'm getting about 110 miles per %. That's 90% highway with two cold starts. Sixty-five mph is about 2500 rpms. Norm Quote: Originally Posted by DavidRSr It's the 2.4, not the GXP.

I recently got a door ding which "ticked" me off. I found this GREAT guy, Jeremy at OptimumDentRemoval.com. In the Chicago and Southern Wisconsin area. Check out his website... if you send him an email he will call and answer your email. (sometimes a rarity) He came to my house and it is impossible to see where the damage was done.

Nice post Charlie. It'll be on my to do list. Next time I am at Princess Auto (a Canadian Harbor Freight) I'll have to see if they have something like this. The inside of my tips are getting a little tarnished and could use a good cleaning.

Here is the recommended procedure for removing scratches from the new Camaro radio face plate. Perhaps someone on site that has cleaned their own Solstice radio face palte can comment on if it will work. Quote: Any scratches that are not removed by this procedure are too severe to be restored.

Might try old school - newspaper and vinegar. The vinegar dissolves any hard water stains and the paper is just a little more abrasive than paper towels. Also, some folks think the ink may have something to do with how well it cleans.
