I was absolutely flabbergasted

[DEEZUZ]

So there's a new CREW car wash in St. John....

I roll up and they say they CANNOT wash SHO's....

I tried to look through the mask to see if it was someone I knew that was fucking with me... Nope..

They cannot wash them due to the side badges "ripping off and getting stuck in the brushes and destroying the car"...

I'm literally speechless.. I told them I've been to the Merrillville one 2 times and never a word said... I said just send it who cares. Manager came over and said absolutely not

To be fair I have seen numerous posts on FB SHO group where those badge vent things just fall off... lol

This...... Is amazing [emoji1787]

Holy shit

The little prick said "toss some SEL badges on"

And I was like did he just fucking roast me....

 

[guspech750]

I've never heard this before. We've taken our SHO through spinny bush type carwashes a gazillion times. lolzzzzz

 

[ChrisRac]

Dumb yes, especially if you are giving them permission to send it. At the end of the day though, they're just looking out for you.

But the comment about SEL badges. Hahahahaha

Couldn’t imagine taking any vehicle to one of those paint destroyers

 

[dun4791]

Have never gone through a car wash with any vehicle I’ve ever owned, never will. Rather have a dirty car

 

[DanJ]

Put some SEL badges on it your rich motherfucker.

This. I have only went through a car wash that was completely touchless, and that's in the winter just to remove the salt on a daily.

5” or lower vehicle? I feel like that’s any car.....or at least any car I’ve owned.

 

[Thirdgen89GTA]

Sadly true touchless seem to be too far and few in between. I'd use one during the winter to rinse the salt off. But there really aren't any near me.

There was the Busy Bee car-wash, but that seems to have moved from a DIY to touch wash.

And the only other one I know of is the one off Army Trail and Glen Ellyn.

There is one near Nerge & 53. But that only takes tokens, and half the time the machine that changes money to tokens is broken.

Securing front fender SHO badges

So I chrome deleted my SHO fender badges. Actually took them all the way apart so I didn't have to Plastidip the black plastic mesh. Looks pretty good. Now that I have them back on the car they don't seem as snug as when I first took them off. They haven't fallen off yet, but I am worried...

Apparently they get stuck in the brushes and bash the shit out of your car

I never have and never will own anything that I'll feel bad about taking it through a car wash.

Who’s got time to rub all up on their car all the time? That shit is weird.

C'mon, if you hit the lottery you're telling me you wouldn't buy a sweet ass ride you wouldn't take through a brushed grit ladened carwash????

Especially me for winter.. I get my water from the well house which I shut down in winter.

I could run a hose from tankless hot water heater to the barn. But then again I have one floor drain and barn is usually packed come winter...

Makes sense to run it through a wash in salty snowy conditions. I could wash at work also, but also a PITA as shop is always full.

No id be rich. I'd do it just to piss people off

 

[dun4791]

Not being snobby, I wash my daily like two times a year at best, maybe spray it off a couple times to get salt off in winter too. Just hate paying for clear coat scratches.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Most of the time IF I wash a car I own, I use the DIY bay at the wash since my shit is always dirty. I need that up close and personal pressure washing.
