I just sent a link of one example there are others, just google them, they vary in quality the better ones have a cloth liner and will vent as you drive.
You must remember to take it off if the car gets wet and you are going to park it or it will fade the paint. BUT if it gets wet and you are driving the humidity will vent (on the better ones like mine) just read the discription carefully before you buy don't go cheap and make sure you get one for the SS model as they differ from non SS
Also, you want one with the mesh that covers the upper and lower grille inlets

Hey everyone!! Tadd just informed me about this and I would like to go too! I didn't think my monte was nice enough to go, but I guess it's alright! LOL
My mom and I are going to head down, we will take 131 S to I-69 S, then to 27 S to get to Richmond. This will probably still be one of my first big shows so I'm def gonna need some prep help!! Still really new to the Show Bizz.
I have to become a member still, but to everyone who reserved their rooms, How much per night was it and did you have to pre-pay or just reserve?
Thanks guys!

Ronda and I got the Hot tub room and used her federal discount so my rate is not normal

Awesome! Thanks so much Tadd!! I'm pretty excited about going! I have a couple things I want to do to the monte to make him look a litte more "Show" then just daily driver.
I'll probably get my reg. sent in this weekend and get my hotel reserved next week sometime. I'm a cheapo so I might see if I can get a hotel cheaper that is near the other hotel. Gatta save some money! LOL

Tadd, thanks. I'll have to look into a nice car bra for highway trips. I had a nice one for my 03 when I had that car but only used the hood portion because the bra was for the non-SS (was a gift). I never used that bra in the rain and wouldn't use this one in it either. Besides, the 06 hardly ever sees rain.
I just reserved my room for the 27th-30th (~$97 a night). I'm heading down on Thursday so I'll plan to meet up with you guys at the Michigan/Indiana Border.

Incase yall wanna stay at the same place as the rest of us. PS I was also informed..only 3 jacuzzi rooms left.:-)

Just wanted to say that last year in the hotel parking lot at the Nats in the evening, they played music, all the Montes that had em lit up their under carrage LED lights and trunk panel lights, we mingled and had a blast. Everyone shared ideas for mods, detailing cars ect... I learned a lot
