yep, sucks, but the only way to fix that is to strip it to metal and then repaint. No easy fix other than a big blob of tar.

There are some paints you can do that to with better or worse results. Luckily, you can isolate that area fairly easily.

LOL, for future referance, unless you use your wiper washers use those clamps and run hard line a touch past your cowl.

Did he purge the whole bottle! I didn't see it on your pictures. On mine I have it poking through just enough to see so that the nitrous is above the cowl when it purges. Also make sure that the line isn't touching the cowl. this is all to try and keep the cold away from everything as best as possible. You could do what I've heard of people doing. Running a line to up front so its comeing out of your horses nose....or butt lol.
