You Gotta Be Sh*ttin Me


Great!! Now I have to worry about the paint coming off of both ends! I just spent two hours yesterday touching up the chips in the front. My 10k mile AE looks like my 150k mile Olds. I fear what my paint will look like after another year of less-than-average driving!

I checked and nope. 2K1 with 14K no probs and it sits out all the time.

Where and what did that set you back? I need a new front bumper and if they are painting it anyway, I want higher quality, but also want the rest of the car to match...

Thanks!
