Complain to the organizers about using subpar vinyl....

Mom can make a sticker too if you decide to go that route...

BTW, next time, use a hairdryer to warm the sticker, then gently peel back.

Funny you mention Kevin as he was at my side as I was peeling (slowly). I used the sun. It was hot. As in we were working on my sticking sunroof and any screwdriver/socket left unattended in direct sunlight became blazing hot within 5 minutes. What we thought was leftover adhesive residue actually turned out to be the clear that pulled off. ('Cause it didn't clean up with the Goof Off I used once I got home.)

I'm hoping the hood can just be resprayed. Either that or maybe it'll buff right out.

Yeah, that last sentence was meant in green.

Mebbe Dave can try his hand at shooting some lacquer...I mean clear on the hood. We'll just pick a day when it isn't too windy.

That's meant in green, too, BTW.

Actually, you should get a load of a gorgeous white RSR-look car that he's got in the shop right now. Owner's GF tossed a can of aircraft paint stripper on it in a fit of rage. Wow, that stuff works well.

Peeing on a car will do the same thing.

Morning guys,

rough start of the day, spilled my first cup of coffee....
Computer was slow, did a virusscan, found 19 (!) virusses.... Why the F does this fuh-king virusscanner only detect these motherfuh-kers when I do a manual scan???
Isn't it supposed to get them when they are installed or downloaded or something???
Now even after the scan, I do not trust it, might as well have new ones....

I'll be glad to break it in for you.... I don't think you'll need it for a while.

If you think I'm sending it back to the States, you've got another think coming.
It already crossed the pond TWICE....
You're more than welcome to come to Belgium and race the snot out of it..

I was thinking of the muffler for Dave. I am happy with the current setup on my 911's.
