Default How many of you cleaned up the A3 today?
It was a beautiful day here in Memphis. It was about 85 degrees, sunny with just a hint of cool breeze. I cleaned up the A3 spotless and went cruising the city. As soon as I got on the highway, a big fringing rock from a truck hit my car square in the nose and flew over the windshield...yeh it left a small crease in the hood. But you know what, life's too short to worry about a small dent in the hood...I'll fix it someday or not.

Default Mine was centerpunched by a shopping cart two days after purchase.
Fortunately, I was able to get the dent out through paintless dent removal ($50).

Perhaps you can do the same?
