I personally don't care for the primer "as a completed job" but if it's a means to an end, I can understand and you might as well have fun with it and try some stuff out when it's like that... long as you know it's all got to come off before paint . Some get exempt but that's up to my discretion

And the rebellion/anti establishment statement stuff ,I feel bad for the guys that aren't like that and have a primered job because all the idiots ,get them lumped in to the same pile .
And I'll drive'em looking like a spotted pony but when it's all said and done I've got to have something to shine .

The rusty stuff that gets pilled on a set of tires: I refuse to deal with,I don't even want to visit w/them if I can help it .Some of them get exempt from this rule for the work they do under the rust but that's up to my discretion also

And flames: I think I've got the same problem I like them on other peoples rides but I own nothing with them ( used to have a mower ) , I like them on other peoples cars though . I've said I was going to put ghost flames on my nova for years but never done it .

That's my opinion.
