Tristan, you amaze me every day at how your n00bness never seems to wear off. Question, only if you're prepared to answer of course. Just how much money have you spent on this miracle machine to date? I'd like to compare that cost to selling your orignal GX and buying a B4, gen4 GT or gen4 3.0.

they wanted pics... or/and inspection... it'd be kinda hard to not notice the paint damage... besides... it was a quote... i'm fair sure they didn't take my plate number or anything...

you take pics NOT OF THE FLAKING PAINT!

or if you have to, use the newspaper to cover it up! (if they ask you to use today's newspaper to authenticate the photos)

they do ask for a newspaper to authenticate it...

but that would mean covering my whole rear bar [edit: and part of my front bar, and my front passenger quarter, and the spoiler, and the various dings all down the side, and the bonnet, and the dodgey paint on the roof] (which has epic aids ) with newspaper...

*shrug*

i'm not worried... touchup paint isn't that expensive... or i can do a proper job... it's due for a paintjob anyway...

Fark. $250 to get the bar sprayed man. Either that or just don't tell them. I vote don't tell them, and don't worry any further.

How the hell is a Liberty GT a glorified Camry??? That's the most idiotic thing that's come out of you. Well, apart form saying that Subaru's are Japanese Taxi's when you'll find that they don't use Subaru's as Taxi's in Japan... What cars do they use as Taxi's in Oz??? Oh... that's right.... The differences between the two cars is overwhelming and your argument cannot be justified at all. I enjoy having you around mate, but when you say things like that on a Subaru fourm it leaves a bitter taste on my mouth, probably all our mouths. Especially given the fact that you used to preach the virtues, HARD, but now you berate it all because you now drive a Commodore. Just doesn't make sense... /RANT

Keep in mind, a "glorified camry" will own most of the Holden V8's up till the introduction of the 5.7L.. which in standard form would only marginally pull ahead (but not of my B4 because I have tried and succeeded :D)
