Not everyone comes into the "Detailing section" to look at the threads, and as I am a sponsor .....yes I can.

Easy does it gmac, Bob is one of the best in the business. I'm sure he had no intention of spamming the boards the way some wheel companies have been known to in the past.

Amen. Bob, keep posting wherever you wish. One of your threads is worth 10 of the others. Even if it IS a Ford!

I do just fine btw, but do not bring your "Off topic gangsta shenanigans" into the detailing section......you follow.

The write ups are also posted into the section the model of the car is for a reason to demonstrate what can be done as this is how the board continues through sponsorship and members content.
