That mark on your hood looks more like bird crap. If its left on your car of even 12 hrs it can do that. It wont buff out ether.

Car looks sick though!

Some people say "dash" when referring to everything in front of the driver, including the center console. I guess that's what he meant. Personally I call the dashboard the dash and the center console exactly what it is.

lol no worries man.

yeah i'd know it wasn't a type-s, diff wheels give it away in a few pics, plus i've seen those pics on azine before when you're brother posted them.

is that a type-s front bumper or just a type-s lip on a base bumper?

We're good man. It's just my opinion. If your good with it, that's all that matters. Remember, Just because I'm a mod, I still have my opinion. Doesn't make me right or wrong. Know what I mean?

Donny, in the lower right hand corner of each post, there is a button that lets you multi-quote multiple people. It's the middle button, similar to what is done above.

Cheers!
