Default Another TT sickness symptom

I'm supposed to go to a wedding this weekend in Philly. My wife suggested we drive the TT down. Right now the weather looks like it will be sunny so the top can be down (the only way I drive it) but I have these two tiny stone ships just above the passenger headlight.

I've orded my Langka and touch up paint but it hasn't arrived. I just can't make myself drive it until I do something about them.

Should I or shouldn't I? I seek sage advice from my council of brothers and sisters.

Driving the TT is better than not driving the TT.

What can I say, sometimes I am a perfectionist - but not always, especially in my spelling

Default That's definitely not TT sickness....the symptoms of TT sickness include...

...an unquenchable desire to drive your TT no matter what it's condition. You're just **** retentive or have OCD. :-P

Default READ THIS NOW.

Sorry for the all-caps subject, but you sound a *LOT* like me, and many others around here when your car's nose was still chip-free. If you're really concerned about rock chips, go spend the 500-1000$ on a professional install of a clear bra. It is definitely costly, but now in retrospect, I wish so bad that I'd had it done. 35,000 miles later, my nose looks like a polka-dot paint job (my car is also B Black). Get those chips fixed, and get a clear bra pronto. It's worth the money twice over.

I'm considering (not seriously, but still) getting the nose of my car resprayed and then getting this done as well. I would likely get the whole 9 yards, so to speak (nose, 1st 12" of hood, A pillars, front of roof-line, etc etc), but there are all sorts of different packages you can choose from..

I'll second that. I'm at 20k, and wishing I had as well.

"**** retentive"; should that be hyphenated? :-)

I hope you are not suggesting that it is acceptable to drive it when it is dirty!

I'm planning on getting the front repainted and a clear bra installed after the TT season starts to slow down (not sure when that is yet).
