NO NO NO NO We've established this. It is NOT just a car.

All of my paint imperfections are rock chips. I've managed to be very lucky and not incur any door dings. Yet. I'm sure I just jinxed myself

like going to a hair salon. if you go in looking like crap, they arent going to treat your hair very well..

if you go to supercuts, then you turn out looking like crap regardless.

But it's a fast paper weight.

I have a long drawn out story about how I found my current cutter on the east coast. Moved from WA to DC. Got a crap cut from haircuttery, went back to WA to visit and got the crap cut fixed by my regular WA cutter and she suggested her friend who went to the same beautician school and now lives in DC. Lo and behold, she worked 10 minutes from my house. That's the short version. No more crap cuts.

mishuko- if you run those suction cup brackets for your radar detector make sure to take that off the glass while in hibernation. otherwise the silicone cups deform and would require you to boil it to get it back to shape.
