Call .the S.P.C.A...I was cruel to my cats....it was gorgeous today...and I plain and simple IGNORED them....and took the maiden voyage in the C8 today...
Don't know whether to give this a thumbs up or not.?! :unsure:. Don't want the 'What did you do to your Hellcat today' Forum to become another C8 thread. :p. And @Hunter. Delete, delete, delete and another 30 days in the hole for IGNORING the cats! :LOL:

PUT THE BACKSEAT DELETE IN THE REDEYE. Bought a rear seat delete last year and put it in my blown '09 SRT8. Took it out when I bought the redeye and stored it. Transferred today.
I’m considering doing the delete kit.

Yea, I kinda' lucked out with that. I ordered it from a local dealer and got it right away. I ordered the last one out the door I think from the manufacturer. I'm hearing guys can't get these now for nothi'n.

It's called fisheye Hickster. You got a contaminant in the paint. 99% of paint work is prep, prep, prep.

They sell an in house brand of their own design and I heard recently they got some Demon OEM's left for stupid money, like 800 or more, and 200+ shipping. Have not looked myself.

Ahh #71. We burp and lost 1?? Coming from a person with 6 exs I don't feel a thing. Now, my town home is not F---g finished on time,,, I am living with my last ex. Me and the cat, 4 legged, have moved in with Laurie. My feeling go out to my Cat with fisheye. Bad paint job, well hell let's do it for the 4th time with a different painter. At least we have identified the problem. They fixed the scratched wheel, front spoiler, and scratches,,,, never purchase a black vehicle again. If I do, I will buy a paint booth. If I can shoot Emran I can shoot clear. It's the damn humidity down here is the problem. Fish eye on my ass.

Hick, I shot Imron also. Catalyst can cause brain damage if you don't have an inside air system (looks like we both didn't use one. :LOL:). I'm no expert and I'm not a body man by trade, but I've shot a few cars. Humidity causes haze in paint, not fish eye. Oil, wax, and a multitude of plain old dirt can cause it. Doesn't matter how much you sand it, you gotta wipe it with prepsol, mineral spirits, tack strip...whatever. Then you gotta wipe it again. Black sucks to work with, agree on that. But the prep is where all the hard work is. Don't wanna see you have to get a fifth paint job. Good luck.

Thank you Blue Bee. Here in Fl wood knot use anything but an inside paint booth with blowers, lights, and exhaust. Hot as hell but low humidity. Imron is the worst to spider web. I used to paint and finish bikes in Tenn. years ago with out a paint booth. Port, polish, and bore heads and cylinders. Learned the hard way. One client was the Outlaws and they were very particular. So was I at that point. Paint booth 1/2 mile from Laurie's house. I am staying there now. So, I will be there at 8 am and in the booth with the painter if necessary.
