Ok I will just hold off until Friday when the paint come in at Napa for PB7 since other store don't have them.

AAAAHHHHH.
Don't have clue punctuation was proper spell for me. Drive nuts me know not how type proper sentences when easy so do.
Find read hard when people try not show intelligence.

Sorry but it is true. Do you speak the way you type?
I'd imagine it would be difficult to understand you if you spoke that way.
Am I being an ***? Yes. I am. But I am also just trying to help you sound more intelligent than you are letting on by your terrible typing.
Let me geuss. Your in your twentys and school let you get away with it and you text in slang and short, hence you never learned proper sentences or punctuation.
Imagine speaking to a prospective employer like that.
Would you get a job?
Probably. Bottom pay and grunt labour where your speech is not required. Heres a shovel Johnny.

Hope scoop fit from uncle ok and paint come well out for you.

Ever consider that what you read might have been "auto-corrected"?

You are correct in that there is no excuse for not proofreading, but there is no need to post your comments this way. It could have been written with a little more politeness.

My Dakota was the same coloir as your Durango. I purchased my paint from Imatchpaint.com (NMB Paint sales). The use professional quality automotive finishe paint (Dupont), plus they sell a two-part clear coat that is as good as it gets for rattle can paint.

I installed a hood scoop on mine. As previously stated, I masked the area off where the 3-m tape would be sticking to and I roughed it up with a scotchbrite pad to give some more adhesion. I painted mine off the truck. Thats a no brainer. No masking of body parts.

Yeah I am deaf and people do have hard time understanding me. English classes and speech were the hardest classes in school for me but I did graduated. I do work part-time 5 days clean shop, offices, and delivery parts. Only can work 14-18 hours a week. So I don't blame you for being an *** but I can't help it that my typing isn't good.

You are so right. But I was being polite. Yes, I am an ***.
But I try to at least help people understand they are sounding dumber than they probably really are.
Forgive my rudeness. I really was trying to be polite.
I know I could have been a real dink. But that doesn't help at all.

That ok. I just want to let you know that my typing and talk isn't the greatest. You just give your options on what you think.

stick on scoops are always tricky to do w/o them coming out looking tacky, definitely have to paint before you install, and be carefull that they go on well, put the time in and they will look fine, rush it and you will have problems.

Scoops look good. But at least make them functional.
