Re: unn
The big problem I see for vendors here, other than the spambot motif, is that we have a very eclectic collection of cars for such a small number of active members. Only a few of us have the same car, which means that a vendor would have parts for maybe a dozen of us, if that. It's not really worth it to them, and I can totally agree.

Re: unn
You definitely have a point. Its not as though we're a car or even brand specific forum. Pretty much the only thing we could all use would be a plate frame, bumper sticker, or article of clothing. Considering most of us wouldnt dare let a sticker touch the car, thats out. We SSers are such automotive misfits that we cant even group order something.

Not likely. Nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing, goes on my rear window, unless I ever get a New England Saab Associate sticker. Since I have a plate frame I doubt I will. Side windows are always going up and down, so unless said cling stays on there well, its not likely to stay either.

Re: unn
All color-shifting paints are pearls, but not all pearls are color-shifting paints. Some pearls are just lustrous, like the whites used by high-end automakers...They don't give the full effect in photos, but in person, they glisten. The color-shifting/chameleon paints, best known by DuPont's brand name ChromaLusion, genuinely change the color they appear based on the angle of view as you move around the car. For some reason I don't completely understand, blue-to-purple (Such as the last car in the second row here is very popular.
