Actually...thats one of the first half intelligent things Ive heard you say...congradulations

But trust me...the difference is negligable. Trimming edges to stop tire rub is not rocket science

That could actually be the first time a car has been looped if it did come off. It would be wierd seeing a car standing at 12 olclock or worse, on its roof, from trying that. Glad everything worked out.
