The rest of the car is except for a few scratches (partially fixed by hand, but I now have the tools to finish the job )
As "badly" as you guys think your cars look, I bet it would take less than an hour to find a long line of people who would gladly take them off your hands. Every day I drive my daily driver (09 Matrix) the more I appreciate my Z - scars and all.

Nobody notices those "pimples" but you guys. You maintain it the best you can, enjoy the time spent cleaning and polishing, and ignore the blemishes.

You both have beautiful cars that I have seen in person, and neither is any worse than mine or probably anyone else's who drives their car every day.

Enjoy them while you have them. I bet mr. onzedge wishes he had his right now.

Now let me crawl back under my rock, and I'll touch base again in a few weeks.
