God forbid but this story plays out in my head:
1) you running from the cops in the FD for some reason

OH SNAP!!!! Your car is looking smoking Jaime!!! Cant wait to see it painted





And here is a pic i got to take today that i had some free time to push the car out before the sun went down lol. I did mess with it a bit, but nothing serious to change the color of the car.

Its pretty dusty since i cant wash the car and havent buff and cut it yet, you can see it on the front bumper lol
