Hahaha, lol, sorry but I went to USC very briefly (ATO-FTW!) just not an alumn! My wife graduated the Keck Schoold of Medicine and I ended up CSULB and majored in Administration of Justice/Criminal Justice. Wanted to be an FBI agent...

A little off topic but...I've never understood why USC folks feel the need to shorten their own acronym? SC makes me think of South Carolina.

OK, carry on.

while I was following you, I could totally tell the difference with the Euro trunklid--it looks waaaay better!

here are my pics:

and, I tried to do some playing around with HDR, but they didn't come out so good...

Love the trunk insert (finisher). Mine is getting painted on Monday and I'll install it sometime during mid-week.
