It's the life of a road warrior! I'm going to be talking to them soon, I want to get those two minor issue straightened out. I also want to find a place that can take care of some small (hairline) scratches on my trunk, but I don't know if I'll need a body shop for that.

You can show it to them. Bet you can buff and polish it out

There is a car wash right across the street from my hotel, and if I can get out of here at a decent time this week I'm going to talk to them about a full detail with all the trimmings.

Ok... I've been racking my brain on how I want to do my box for my trunk and I think I've FINALLY decided how I want it built I'm going for functionality and stealth on this built so we'll see how it comes out in the end. I can't wait to start the build on saturday or sunday. Just going to have to buy more MDF, dont think I go enough today, was just going to do a little box for the time being but I decided to hold off and just go all out now. Miss my bass, but my components do enough for now

I can't wait to see that! BTW, installed my Axxess ASWC, and it worked perfect! Auto recognized car and HU. Much better than programming a SWI-CAN/SWI-PS config.
