RE: My New PJ Saleen (PICS)
I live in Sugar Land, well at least for today and tomorrow, then I am off to San Diego! I hope I see her driving real soon. Is she ever in the SW part of Houston?
Sugarland is just a bit far for us. Besides, you don't want to play with your 3V...
we wouldn't be any contest! lol
Headed for San Diego? That's my Hometown...born there and raised in Newport Beach. Had too much fun in the heat and humidity here, huh?
Going for vacation or job change? Which ever...have a good one!
Eric
Anyways have a good one, and enjoy your beautiful car Eric!

) is yellow in some pics and orange in others. Is this just the light or is the paint somewhat like Extreme Rainbow in that it is different colors from different angles?

It's not iridescent (sp?) or color changing, but 2007 Grabber Orange is VERY different in different light settings. I have pics of my car looking darker in the shade, brighter but still orange in the sun, and very yellow in flourescent garage lights. It's hard to photograph with any consistency, as I'm sure others would attest, but a great color for getting your attention - plus it's real easy to find your car.
USMC - contact me if you want some perfect match vinyl number 15's for your ride instead of the static. I got a connexione'.

RE: My New PJ Saleen (PICS)
Yup. I went with the perms instead of magnetic. Just like your boss stripes - these things stay on. And I have zero regrets having racing numbers on the side, as this is a tribute vehicle and it'll allow you to 'tell the story' about what the numbers mean.
Let me know and I'll PM the shop near here. Look back in this thread for pics. You won't be able to tell which were the statics and which were the permanant vinyls!

Chuck and USMC...
Have you guys found, that the "cling" decals are a problem? I really don't have a problem with mine.
With the area good and clean,using a soft straight edge, to get the bubbles out, and warm soap water, mine stay on without a problem at all. I understand the permanent vinyl
but with the right application, the "cling decal" works great, even at high speed... I just never take'm off.
I too would be interested in the permanent vinyl if the quality is there.
And wtf with the different shadecolors??? Mine does the same....My avtar looks banana yellow.
What's up with that, lol
