Default Strange. I think mine may have been in an accident and nobody told me when I bought it...

B/C mine's never had one and I have these strange paint marks that almost looks like somebody took sandpaper to the front of my car - hood and fenders, but only right up to the edge of the fenders, then the rest of the car is fine.

I talked to the dealer where I bought the car and they said mostly likely it was damaged when it arrived here from Germany and they did a poor job fixing the paint in port, and now it's showing.

Maybe that's where the hood liner disappeared to also!

Why don't you use it anymore? I'd think it may quiet the exterior noise of the engine a bit.
