nice and shiney. Is it my imagination or does your chin spoiler have more of a gap between it and the body than others who have that same one installed?

Looking good, man! I just clayed my car on Friday with Turtle Wax Ice Liquid Claybar. I washed it, clayed it, washed it, waxed it, spray waxed it. First time to wax this year. Of course, now it's covered in pollen. [>:]
