Thanx Guys

Yea the idea of leaving the plastics on is great..Only problem is that the PCD is a really nice 1st class delivery center where they deliver the cars in excellent condition, so i don't think they will deliver it with the plastics, another thing is that the cars are washed in a mix of water and kerosene to remove a coating called cosmoline (sp?) the put on the car for the trip on the ship that way the salt air doesn't corrode the car (i am not even sure they put the plastic on the cars). A minor reason i am picking my car up at the PCD is b\c some times it happens that the dealers when they prep the car they wax it and put swirl marks (i basically wouldn't accept the car with swirls marks) and at the PCD they know that the type of people who pick they cars up there are true enthusiasts so they realty take care of the cares to the highest degree possible.

So, i looks like the Painters tape is the way to go.
I am just going to have to buy like 2 roles of tape b\c im even going to tape up the front wind shield....J\K

I cant find the link to the page where a friend posted pics of when he pick up his car at the PCD but when i get it i will post it so check back.
