My Adriatic Blue '95 Riviera

Now with portholes!

I can't help it if my car looks great posterized!!!

I absolutely love how a car looks after a sunshower. Sunshowers are a beautiful thing. I took these next few pics right after one, while it was still muggy and smelled like rain outside, but the sun was out and hot as ever.












Between the water staying in tight droplets all over the car due to the wax, and just the icy blue color of my car, I believe that this picture captures the true essence of the Riviera. It was nearly 100 outside and humid, but looking at this car made me feel cool and refreshed, like I drank a cold glass of lemonade.



That's not rain, that's condensation. Haha!

Just took a few mintues and looked over your topic you take some very nice pictures. What products do you use to clean your car?

Oh man, I have such a grab-bag of car care stuff.

Simoniz wheel cleaner, DuPont Teflon Carnauba wax, TurtleWax ICE carwash, and those are the basics. I'll check my trunk again later.

Sorry if you've said somewhere earlier in the thread but I'm lazy - what are those chrome things on both sides of your grill?

Haha, those are deer whistles. At first I got them because I didn't want to get into a mess with a deer, and they've already worked a couple times for me(by making the deer cross the road long before you get there and so that you have enough time to brake), but after having them on for so long I really like the look. Gives the Riv some teeth, a little al dente without looking like crap. Placement is pretty good right in between the lights and grille, and I love how the bumpers are basically like decks added on to a house!

Hey I know you have an HID kit - have you had any problems with the ballasts or bulbs going out? I read some reviews on ZZPerformance where they claim the bulbs and ballasts go out every six months or so. I'm wondering if that's true if it's ZZPerformance's kit that's bad or the HID kits in general.

Well, one of my ballasts went out, but it was replaced promptly for free by the merchant I bought it from on Amazon. The replacement I got has something wrong with it; there must be an energy flow block somewhere since the light on its side never fully warms up, but after using it for a while it's getting closer and closer and now you can't tell the difference.

I've had these for a few months and other than the one ballast, the bulbs haven't had any problems.

I suggest the snow covered shot for the calander, a December or January feature.... would be perfect

Ha, waaay ahead of ya!

Maybe you could have given us that warning on page 8. Post whore!

That wasn't for the sake of my post count, I wanted the pics to be at the start of the next page.
