10,000k service today, great customer service ready on the dot and maps updated as requested. Initially they said No its not done by us but they must have had a change of heart......I suppose I better go and check they actually did it. After talking to there showroom white is the best seller out here. They told me ceramic silver (wet cement look) is not popular. To date they've sold 60 Stingers. I think that's the most in the state of NSW

GWK as per your recommendation .

I say " each to their own " , the only thing is, i thought it might be illegal to have lights like that while driving ? or is it just some colours that are banned, as some people may think your a Police car behind them...lol

In NSW the only colours legally allowed facing the front is white or orange lights, they can’t flash/strobe etc other than indicators, rear facing is red/orange/white, standard headlight/taillight configuration. Flashing orange lights can be used for warning such as roadworks, wide load, roadside assist, towies etc. Blue & red are emergency vehicles only and they have to be a designated emergency vehicle under the Act.

It shits me when I see people, usually young hoons with green or blue lights on the front of their cars. You can technically light underneath it (unless that law changed) but no part of the globe is allowed to be visible from outside the vehicle. Most States are the same as a lot of it comes under the Australian Road Rules.

I actually like it. I think it’s one of those ‘right time and place’ things and the look would get old pretty quick if it was overused. The second pic in particular looks quite menacing. I think it probably works better against the white car but it would still be interesting to see it paired with other colours.

These are controlled by a Bluetooth app and can be any color, solid, fade or strobe. I can drive with them on solid in either white or amber and be leagal. Flashing red or blue would be illegal.

Exactly I don’t have any intentions of using these daily, but at meets at night or taking pics I think they look good. The lower lights will show off the JT intercooler that’s on its way.

Got my Stinger wrapped up, yesterday (full hood, bumper, head lights, mirrors, smoked chrome, both front fenders & A pillars). The product is Protex Ultra (7.6mm polyurethane film with a 0.5mm clear coat on top of it), 5 years warranty, it auto heals under the sun, it's very strong and resistant, which is exactly what I need here in the freezing cold (minus 26C, this morning or -15F for USA guys).

Also got their Prime XR window tint, which blocks up to 99% of UV lights and more than 80% infrared rays. It's an AMAZING product that really keeps the inside of the car from cooking up under the sun. The look is great!

Finally, got the whole car protected with a nano ceramic scellant. The finish is amazing, I'm very happy about it. The guys at Protex were very professionnal, the service is A1. I recommand it to everyone interested in that type of protection.

Looks good, did you say -26c ! My freezer is set at -18c and that's damn cold. You guys must have great anti freeze in your cars. Anyway is that wrapping and sealant procedure an expensive exercise? Obviously it's worth it

Today, I bought my first, ever (in my life) car wash pass. Thirty days of "outside plus" car washes. Yesterday the wet roads got that salt crap all over the lower half, and underside, of my baby. First "hit" from the salty roads that we've taken. So, I got her all cleaned off and got ready for the battles to come: each day that I drive on wet Utah roads will be followed by a first dry day; and the first dry day I will be in getting my car's undercarriage and wheel wells sprayed out (the "plus" part of the "outside" wash).

The severe cold/conditions is why I didn't have any new vehicles for so many years. From 1996-2015, I lived mostly in N Dakota, some in S Dakota and a couple years in Germany. Germany wasn't an issue, really (I would have loved to have my new Stinger there for daily Autobahn travel), but the other two places? Talk about cold, especially Minot, ND!

I get mine washed at least twice a week. I get unlimited car washes.

Hahaha yeah it's extremely cold, but we haven't even started the coldest month of the winter, here, which is Janurary.

It is an expensive exercice, indeed. I got a great rebate on the full frontal wrap and nano ceramic scellant. Paid 1299 CAD plus taxes (which amounts to 1489 CAD total) instead of 1699 CAD plus taxes (which would have been 1955 CAD total). The nano ceramic filled "XR" window tint was 259 CAD instead of 375 CAD.

So yeah, it's not cheap, but it's definitely worth it. I drive 90km a day, for work, mostly on back road. So I needed a very strong and durable product. They put all kinds of sh*t on our roads (gravel, sand, big ass salt balls, etc.)...damn winter!!

That's worth it, not as expensive as I expected. I've seen ceramic tint up close it looks amazing. Good stuff.

Well, you got me on that one, but i must admit, the Lamborghini Huracan Performante is my favourite supercar i can't afford, so i was focusing on the car, i should really use my prescription glasses next time....
