Honestly I will admit that I'm one of the nit-picking a$$holes, but usually it's the cars that supposedly were done by big name shops with tons of $$ invested, not a budget build cars, some people may never understand my way of thinking, but if you actually pay a professional to get a job done and the job does not appear to be done by a pro, expect my nit-picking .

I simply can not comprehend when someone spends 10's of thousands of $$ on parts, remove majority of the parts before paint and leave few brackets,cables,wiring harness,brake booster and hoses everything with paint, then drops in $20k all polished and chromed out motor, turbo,e.t.c. It only takes few extra hours to remove them before paint ,clean and install after the paint work is done, here is a prime example







I see this kind of stuff all the time, I mean how hard is it to remove few brake lines,unbolt few brackets,remove couple wires? You spend weeks ,months and years building a car, few hours extra making sure everything is removed, cleaned and re-installed will not kill you. I hope you guys see where I'm coming from. I just like seeing cars that were done right, not half-assed, that's all

I love Mario's approach, it's the best defense in situations where someone is ripping on your car, I applaud when someone spends alot of $$ and sweat into their car and drives it like it's meant to be. DFRESH, paint chips and dings are nothing more than battle wounds
