    Welcome to the group! Your plans sound great for your VX!
    I'm totally with you on those sucky Duelers!! Tell us what you ordered???

    I see your amber corner markers and turn signals have been tinted/smoked, either sprayed or lenses replaced. Nice

    Must ask a few questions....

    We've been having LOTS of discussions recently about cladding...yours looks great, nice and satiny, very uniform, and pretty dark......can you tell if it's just a topical treatment (i.e. Back2Black etc..) or if it's had some type of permanent coating applied (like Restore/Refinish or TS-1). Is it collecting dust? Is it "oily" at all?


    Also, the bumperette on the back...I'm in the market for one so I've been looking at several. Yours looks like it might be the Go Rhino one, but it seems narrower (side to side) than any model I've seen. Any info on it?


    Thanks, and welcome again.

    Yep, I spray tinted those amber lenses. Good to see they are holding up. I used Meguiars on the cladding EVERY time I washed the VX which was like once a week. HA! I'm not sure they make the exact stuff I used anymore, but it ALWAYS made the cladding look super dark since I wished the cladding was black. Oh well..the VX is still LooKin SICK!! I'm so glad it went to someone who will continue to take care of it.
