Days off tomorrow. So excited after working 5 weeks straight. I did take a personal day on Halloween.

Can't wait to sleep in a bed.

I found over spray or what feels like over spray on my car while I was waxing it this weekend. Is this something that the shop should fix even though I got my car back about a month ago?

I don't think it is unreasonable for you to expect them to fix it. Any time I do paint work I go over the car with a fine tooth comb to make sire I didn't miss anything. No matter how hard I try sometimes over spray will find its way past a piece of tape that maybe didn't stick too good. I have seen $10,000 paint jobs with some over spray. So be careful not to insult the shop and you will have a much better result.

ive used my makita high speed buffer or a porter cable with mirror glaze to get overspray off. but like wacker said, i dont think that its unreasonable for you to take it back to the shop and see if they will take care of it for you. if it were over a year then i would say you should probably take care of it yourself, but anything under that, as long as you dont have any more accidents attached to the carfax that theyll find, they you should be fine

Yea It was. Seemed so much worse in the moment. When I look back at the video you can see the bitch edging over so I should have known she would be retarded. I am usually hyper aware now when I drive but I missed that one. At least I know my reaction time is still decent lol.

If it had happened just prior to that section or just after there is NO shoulder at all and it would have been game over. Is there a way to post the vid directly here instead of having to click on it? I am ok with posting pictures but seems I have never posted a video before lol.

Yea I don't know what other site is better for videos. I just started using PB way back in the day. I am sure there are better sites to use.

Well the whole reason I have a camera running in my car at all times now is because of a stupid (insert expletive) that was brake checking me on a one lane each way road and doing 20 and below in a 55 and every time I tried to pass when the dotted lines came she floored it and cut into my lane to make sure I couldn't pass. A cop show up to my house two days later and arrests me for aggressive driving and we go to court. Turns out her daddy was a cop in that small town and she pressed charges ON ME!!! She lied through her teeth the entire time and I now have points on my record thanks to her. Luckily my lawyer forgot to ever take his payment out of my account so at least i wasnt out that part haha.
