Default I find it amusing how the venting starts snowballing

until we find out that the dealer forgot to peel the shipping plastic from under the hood edge. I'll give them some slack since it was Crystal White which is what I wish my teeth were because it is pretty bright. On a dark color the residue left by the shipping plastic can create the illusion of a bad paint job and once you take a heat gun to it the residue disappears like magic. All's well that ends well.
