Be Honest....How many of you have done something to your Car that you thought looked good or you were proud of your accomplishment and then when friends see it and say " Man who did that to your car!? it looks like crap!" you tell them "the PO did that"...lol come on now guys you know you've used the PO as the Scapegoat before.
