Looks good with the flares removed!
Let me know when you are organizing a trip. I'd love to get out on some trails!

I'm feeling the same for Amicalola, though I wouldn't be surprised if those roads were closed here in the next year or so. Beasley was fun but I don't know if it was worth the drive personally, but it could be a fun trip. We'll get something going here pretty soon.

We'll probably post something up about it once we get everything figured out.

Oh man, that's no bueno! There has been multiple methods used for the little project. Some work, and some don't. I found that using these products helped:
-Citrus based Goo Gone
-Dremel tool with buffer attachment (not the cloth one, but the one made up of plastic wires)
-Blaster auto protectant & polish found on EE
-And a good buffer
A lot of people said to use hair dryers/heat guns, but I did not have access to either so I can't speak on how helpful/useless they may have been.
Hope that helps! Let's see some pics when you're done!

easy to come by? heck yes. step one: walk out of office, go into shop. step one(a) get a bucket, preferably a clean one. step two: here you have some options. either sump some fuel from any number of airplanes you see within 50 ft of the hangar door, or walk a hundred feet further and sump some from a fuel truck or get some out of the barrels full of throw away fuel from maintenance being performed at the shop next door. step three, go back in the hangar and dip a rag in the aformentioned bucket then wipe the residue from your automobile. step four wash your automobile. (then clean the hangar floor, your mother doesnt work here)
alternate step 2: for this one you dont even have to go outside the hangar, sump some jet A this should probably work, but it may take a little extra time and/or scrubbing. proceed to steps 3 and 4.
see you could have performed steps 1-4 in less time than it took to write this up.

Yeah, that sounds easy to come by:sombrero::sombrero:!! I will admit I was let down by the Goo Gone. Did not stand up to praise it received in my opinion. Then again, I didn't use a heat gun so maybe that was the missing link. I'll try to find some jet fuel for if I remove the side molding!
