If you notice the little pieces of tape, that's where they are going to re-buff the paint. The great thing is, they're as anal as I am!

YOU MEAN THE HOOD IS MISSING? Shocked  I thought something didn't look right! Actually, Joel, There is a tiny scratch by the rear script but they're fixing it! Paul, did you notice your gas door emblem? It's really coming along.

Hey Barry, Im disappointed that you didnt call me if the car needed markings. I still have that red marker to help you out! Works great for identifying problem areas! Actually the car looks great! I saw the tape on the pics and was wondering what it was so Im glad you added an explanation. Ya know this thread is now 10 pages long and I hope you get the car back before it hits 15 pages! Going to have to go back and reread them all to remember whats been done! Cant wait to see it!

Looking great Mr. Blue Barry!!!!!Clap I agree with Joel. Give-er a good scratchin an get it over with. The first weekend I had mine home from the paint shop it was in the driveway with the window down. I looked and my 3 year old grand daughter  was sittin in the drivers seat. I said," Zoe, how'd you get in there." She says " I climbed Granpa." Sure nuff, up the side were the foot scrapes.AngryAngryCensored
Back to the shop fer some serious buffin. doh
