so sgm is almost as labor heavy as black? I'm pretty sure i'm getting a lighter color car and was hoping someone w/ sgm could convince me that it doesn't show dirt as bad as other dark colors. am a big sgm fan but after coming from a black car didn't want to deal w/ the constant washing.

Whats up guys,

Wanted to post some pics here, had my SGM for about five months now, but cant really figure it out. Usually just have to upload a picture to or copy and past, now its asking for URL of picture?? Any help for posting pics...

In the mean time though, I decided to just link my cardomain site.

Glad to see the other SGM's out there, looking good fella's!!!
