It's kinda hard to see in this picture, but there are some "grind" marks around the edge of the opening on the trunk and some "phantom" drips on the right side. Maybe some kind of chemical?


This shot is around the rear window on the drivers side. Looks like they re-shot some paint in that area. I've had guys almost accuse me of lying about the paint being original when they see this overspray. I even started to scrape it off but thought better of it. It's the way it came!!


And lastly, the engine compartment. What the heck spilled in here?? I just noticed that all these "flaws" are located on the driver's side of the car. Maybe that side of the assembly line was "drunk" that day??!!
