That would be "on the far left side" of the hood.

I guess that makes sense. However, I doubt that something with "RED GATOR" interior was sprayed correctly. I would also imagine that "tastefully" doesn't enter into the equation either.

Didn't realize replacing a wrecked nose from a different color car would justify a custom paint job?

I think that is the motion that the brush takes when painting. You flip the brush up..... you flop the brush down........repeat as necessary.

This one reads like a 16 year olds text.

Too bad about the "sterio" system. And lots of people are in "det" these days (wait, maybe not). Oh well, at least you have your "priarities" in order. The "susspention" as well as the lack of pics is keeping me in suspense. Not!

I wonder how some of these idiots ever graduated from high school. They've no idea on how to write, spell, or punctuate a sentence. And then they expect some sucker to buy this crap.

It's not that hard, but it's not a priority for some people. I see some on this site who (repeatedly) can't spell single syllable words, much less punctuate correctly.
