Things that you MUST Do if you are getting a new G

I propose a list of the things that you MUST Do ASAP if you are getting a new G

- Clearbra the front - the paint is horrible and you will get paint chips if clearbra is not installed.
- Clearbra the interior handle trim - it scratches very easily
- Stay far away from curbs - if not you will most likely @#$ up the front rims
- Only do the basic mods for the first few months (maybe pedals and hyper-ground kit); after a few months of driving you will really appreciate it when you install the other mods
- Stare at the G as you walk away from it

Guys/gals anymore you would like to add?

Re: Things that you MUST Do if you are getting a new G

Based on several user's blackstone results, an oil change at 1K miles is probably recommended.

Debate as to frequency thereafter along with when and even if to switch to synthetic abounds from there however. Several owners I know go every 3K with synthetic, having switched to synthetic at 10K, but others have reported in several threads recently that their cars are burning through synth, specifically Mobil 1, like it was nothing.

The oil change at 1K however I think is pretty sage advice.

Heck no!!! Not in the G.
Just put the blanket down outside. The seats do not have memory return so you don't want to mess with the seats just for a little playtime. But if you do please use Lexol leather cleaner

That stupid plastic center piece is really hard for making out in the back seat. I really hate it.
