You might not want to try the P.N. on the scratched surface again, or try to dilute it with water, it will be less shiny and it might work better...

Either that or you turned around, drove 45 miles back to the dealership, flung the mats (with rocks attached) out of the window drive-by style through a couple of windows in the showroom, and then burned rubber out of there

Hey everyone! I've missed you guys! I've been really busy with this whole wife wrecking her car thing, I hate paperwork and calling people with a passion, and I've been doing nothing but.

So her car was a total loss, over $10k worth of damage. So the insurance is sending us a check for $6200 for the car, we just have to sign the title over to them. Well the junk yard that it's sitting at is like an hour away, so that's a pain to drive. Then my wife gets called into work today, so I had to wake up at 6am to drive her to the airport. We stop at the junkyard first and sign the release form do that our insurance can pick it up. Then I look at our title and realize that it's not a title, it's the application/certificate of title. Grr. So I call the bank and after 30 minutes of playing guess what I'm saying with the stupid female computer voice I finally get ahold of a real person. They tell me that the title was an electronic copy, so they'll have to send me a form to take to the DMV to get the hard copy. I won't get the form till sometime next week, then I have to spend all day at the DMV hell hole. Then I have to send that to my insurance. Then they have to go get the car. Then they will send me a check. By then I'm sure that the used car my wife and I found for a great deal the other day will be gone, just because she liked it so much. Anything else would be too simple.
