    It takes just as long to do it wrong...

    It takes just as long to do it wrong...


    Hey it rhymes...


    It takes just as long to do it wrong so you might as well do it right...


    Something I find myself saying a lot when talking to people about their swirled out cars...

    I started saying it at SEMA, (of course), after I took and posted the picture of this swirled-out mess...

    See post #24

    SEMA 2012 Day 1

    I always say,

    "It takes just as long to do the job wrong as it takes to do the job right"


    Ouch! Kind of hurts your eyes to see how this car was butchered...

    I always use "If you can't find the time to do it right the first time, when are you going to find the time to do it right the second time"
