@TeamPJ Have you had it out at night yet? Any impact on visibility (yours, not the people coming at you 😜)?

They have a CY at the Venice hub, so finally got to see it in person; looks amazing. It’s a muted & flat yellow and didn’t really consider it at all until seeing it today, now I am really thinking of switching.

I am deciding whether or not to power coat my 21" wheels. Until then I used Dip Your Car's Hyperdip.

I used Anthracite Gray, about a can for each wheel. I was rotating my tires at the same time so it was easy to spray them on the ground using index cards to stop overspray on the tires. The finish is really nice - a nice improvement over the Plastidip I've used before. I think it was more forgiving in application too.

On interesting thing I've noticed is that my efficiency seems to have decreased slightly after doing this. It's possible the slightly rubbery finish on the wheels causes enough drag to show up on the efficiency meter. Time will tell. This may all be coincidental though. Temperatures are dropping, but even on recent 70º days (with A/C & heat turned off) I feel like I'm seeing a difference.

p.s.; She was named by my sister in AZ. I sent her a photo of the delivery team pulling into the driveway and she responded in less than 10 seconds "Bumble Bee looks great!". I thought about it for a bit and decided ... yep, that's her name. 😁

Got an email saying they’re “ready to build your vehicle”
I still haven’t even seen CY in person

You have to take the leap of faith. Had to do the same with Red Canyon. Didn't see it in person until it turned onto my street for delivery.

First tire rotation in the books. I swear the tire and wheel is heavier with my wife’s Telluride.
