yeah, we got a lot of snow really fast, but it's melting away quick, too. There's not much left.

We got 7 inches were I'm at......tried to get a picture right after it stopped snowing but I couldn't even back the car out of the garage
The snow came down so hard and fast! I got home from work at 3pm and the roads were just dusted......and by 8pm we had 6 inches! Oh well, the car is already up on jackstands and the rear end is just about out

406- where in West Michigan are you? I'm about 20 miles southeast of Grand Rapids same thing happened here. Got out of school at 2:30 and there was a little snow on my car, but by the time I got done running errands at 4:15 I could barely stay on the road with the big 4X4 Suburban. This just ticks me off that we've got about 6 more months of this before I can get my T/A out again.

how is the iroc decal done it almost looks like pearl paint, not a sticker
details please
car looks great in the snow... did you need a push to get it out
we had our first snow already 4 inches or so, just enough to be a pain in the back side.... but it has been warm and cold and raining and oh well NewEngland don't like the weather wait a minute and it changes..

[sarcasm]Just FYI, the defroster is used by pushing the AIR CONDITIONER slider all the way to the right... and get this... once the car warms up, push the COLD AIR slider all the way over to the right to the heater side and hot air blows out!
I know, you're don't believe me, but it's true! I'm not 100% sure on how it works, but it's as if the air conditioner saves up some of that hot air that blows out when you first start the car up with the AC on out there in Cali or something.[/sarcasm]
