Please explain Stormi Because the car is covered in snow or did the stripes actually come off because of the temp?

 

[stormi]

Thanks to the poor ground job, snow + low temperatures now, it started
to peel off.

The actual stripe job was done poorly ( a new girl, I heard ) so everything
will be replaced next week.

So no worries. Just extra job to be done

 

[wreckmaster]

I am glad to hear that it will be fixed my friend

 

[brav0]

Blame the woman!

Offcourse! Dont we always:slayer:

If they admit it was a poor job by someone who had recently just started in the job and they are willing to do the job all over again it have to be OK We all start somewhere, with what we do Experience makes us better

Ps I was answering bravO, but Stormi came between our posts

 

[stormi]

Blame the woman!

I´ll give her " the Stormi treatment" :slayer:

I believe the Bravo had a coat of wax on it and when they didn´t
swipe it off, here´s the result.

I will meet her next thursday :devil:

Well not exactly stripes but I have got the decals Lefteris made for meSince my car maybe is the only maranello red dynamic in the world

He does really good job. And if you did noy know that they where not original, you would never be able to tell

 

[stormi]

They sure do add a nice touch to your Bravo Wash the car
carefully during the winter time Not with a compressor ....

Fine decals by Lefteris.

 

[brav0]

Beat me too it...

Although pictures would be handy

The last month or so we have had pretty cold weather and the Bravo has been fine in engine temp! But the last week it has been a bit different, as it dosen`t seem to reach normal running temp anymore The temp gauge normally is straight up when running on normal temp, but now it doesent seem to go much higher than just above quarter of the gauge. And if I drive in a que or stop and idle for a few minutes it falls back down to bottom of the gauge. It does get warm(ish) inside tough, but not hot!
I am thinking my termostat is bad?

Anyone else experienced this?

Check the hose to the radiator isn't getting warm after starting - it shouldn't open until the engine is getting upto temp.

How's the bravo owners with 18 inch wheels getting on in the snow? The 17s seem alright but I'd much prefer a pair of 15s with 195s on them!
