Default Bummer of a Saturday



Well, after months of deciding on which color, NFR or Black, I had made my decision. This morning, I rented a Home Depot truck and picked up my new accessory that I had ordered 12 days ago from my Honda dealer. When I opened it up........Laguna Blue Pearl!!! Two of the stickers on the box had the part number ending in an "N". This must signify the Laguna Blue Pearl color. The part number on the shipping label from California was correct, but the contents were not. The waiting continues....

Paint your headlights GPW and you'll have a very patriotic car.

Yeah, it does.
When I unpacked it I yelled, "F**K, IT'S BLUE". Mrs. Thraak thought that I was joking. I immediately called my dealer and told him that I received the wrong color. He asked me what color I ordered. I told him red. He asked what color I received, I told him blue. And then he started to laugh. I told him that I didn't see what is so funny. He told me to call back Monday when the Parts Manager comes in..... So I will.

I wasn't too happy with him laughing at that particular moment but here you can see how it happened. Whoever put my shipping label on the carton that contained the Laguna Blue top was at fault. I think it was in California.
