Default nitpicky problem

You know the galloping horse emblem on your steering wheel? The chrome on the pony is coming off on mine, which i dont understand since I never touch that part of the wheel.

Any idea if you can get a replacement steeringwheel emblem?

That dog in the picture probably licks it or scratches it. That's my guess. I would never allow a dog or any animal for that matter in my car. Since you do you probably aren't that nitpicky. [&:]

LOL, that dog is part of the family. He usually sits in the back and has his own blanket back there to sit/lie on. He knows three commands, no, sit, and get in the back. Pretty good dog. He probably rides about once a month with me, when we go on trips or something.

I did freak out a little the first time he jumped in the car when I brought it home, with the leather seats and all, but that was just something I had to get used to. It's a car, some a-hole already ruined my front bumper, and the paint chips from all the highway driving I do (damn trucks should be forced to cover whats in the back!!) --- I have realized things are going to happen. Just that bugged me a little, I never touch that button, and if that chrome is wearing off, what are my a/c vents, dash bezel, and faux aluminum dash going to look like in a few years?

Geeze.... If you think that's bad, don't look under the car then. Yikes! I got to say the integrity of the Mustang is the sh!tiest I've ever experienced with a car. The paint chips if you look at it wrong!

Nope, dog don't smell, I bathe him all the time, and for kicks, if you rub them with a fabric softener dryer sheet when they are still kinda damp, they smell good for days, hehehehehehe.

Now if I could get him to quit eating out of the litter box, his breath might not be so bad.

My dog only sees my mustang from the living room window, she isn't allowed near it.
