    Creaking around seat belt next to drivers side door on 2013 GT

    Thank you! By way of update it has been a couple of days now with the tape and it is still working perfectly. The car feels more solid and well built now that the rear doors don't constantly sound like they are going to fall off. Hopefully the picture works so you can all see what an...

    New owner, de-badge question

    I am hoping to de-badge just so the rear of the car is more symmetrical, I guess it's personal preference. With the badges I plan to use just a heat gun or blow dryer to heat the badge and some dental floss to get behind it and remove it. As for the dealer sticker I have no idea how to get that...

    New owner, de-badge question

    Hi everyone, Not sure if this is the right forum or not but since I'm new I thought I'd post here first. We just picked up our Metropolitan Grey 2012 today and are loving it. It is such a unique vehicle and we look forward to many good years with it. I've been trying to find out whether I can...
