My co-worker has his painted body color, like a maroon red, and it looks pretty good. I should snap a pic.

Is there an easy way of removing the wiper arms? If there was, that cowl would slip right off.

And can someone explain how I make the pictures show up in the thread vs. linking them? The old way I knew from my old image host is not working.
Edit your post, and where you see [ url ] and [/url ] replace the url part with img.
