Best Mod So Far.... Put a Hole Through Your Car

I did a quick 2 minute solve (like the original stuff posted) - just for fun

------
What I've found so far.... Be doing the whole refinement take 2 hour solves, I get much better results. BUT, what I have discovered is that things that were better before get even better or stay the same and things that were worse before get even worse or stay the same. As such, I'm not going to do some of the things we already know to be bad - to save on cycles.

That means I can quickly test something to see if it's worth doing a long test

So you too can see some of the prettier pictures I'm getting....

Weather or not that is "correct" is another story... But, I feel that it's closer to it compared to what I was getting before

My roomate gave the quick reality check on it - you always get dirt and crap on top of your bumper - as that model would suggest
