An obvious photoshop, yet you have the need to make a derogatory implication regarding an unrelated preference that half your fellow forum members desire to have on their C5. A quick look at your profile proves that age has nothing to do with maturity.

I'm not venting about anything Glennm27, the title of the thread was a pun.

An obvious photoshop
It may well be a Photochop but it's well done if it is and not obvious to me. There is no great pixel disturbance in the area and its not that easy to round the ends of a line as uniformly as they are here. I added another vent and it's obvious. Maybe this is a good coloring contest opportunity?

Certainly what people do to personalize their cars is strictly their business, I just thought the photo was of interest and as it turns out fairly controversial. Keep in mind we don't get out much round these parts this time of year.
