The drive was great. Except for the storm I hit in southern Colorado. Now I find myself getting upset with the paint and some of the other stuff that I paid to have done that isn't right.

Doing that the best I can. Some of the stuff is little but some is big. Instead of making a clean looking access hole to put a bolt in the hood. ( I imagine they did something to the nut that was in there ) they took a cut off wheel and buzzed a hole and put a horseshoe clip while leaving all the nasty partially ground metal there. Now the hood won't align right either.

I want to post pics but can't seem to from my phone.

Not kidding. Got the driver to retire.  Crunched rear 1/4 on the body line and marker light.
