Just imagine what a pain in the ass jet black is. It's gorgeous polished and clean, but after that it's maddening.

Oh yeah I know.. I was close to getting it instead of the metallic.. but I figured the metallic paint would be less of a headache lol

Just finished posting about my love/hate with BSM, so it seemed appropriate to weasel in here. Just got her waxed today, so I'm in love for the trip home at least

I much prefer the single slat vs. the double slat. The double slat is too busy looking.

Both pictures are shot straight on Omaha Beach. In the second one, Pointe du Hoc is visible aswell.

Amazing place. Lots of activity everywhere during that whole strech. With american flags everywhere within several miles, american tourists and restaurants everywhere, it felt more like being on the other side of the ocean.
