    Flat black dipped to "protect" the Imola paint.

    I bet they meant to say "hide".

    This! I bet the Imola paint looks abused.

    Some ppl do that to protect the paint in the winter. I'd be wanting some very recent, detailed pictures of the IT paint to prove it though.

    This makes no sense to me. I mean, would they dip the car EACH winter?! lol sounds more expensive than simply washing the car and minimizing driving periods. I don't know, I am a south westerner, so winterizing a car is pretty foreign to me


    I really have no idea what I am doing

    I'm totally with you on this, it seems like there's something wrong with it that the owner is hiding.

    Yeah even if I wanted to "dip" my car and it was in good condition I certainly would remove it before I tried to sell it.

    Absolutely, especially when it's a color combo as this car is, I would never hide an Imola on Imola combo. That's a combo that needs to be out for all the world to see!
