    Rubber marks on the side covers.

    I have had the exact same problem.....tell him to clean them off himself, check the car when it returns and hand him the wax.....I was always taught when you borrow something, return it as it was.....after making my son clean the dirty Viper/Prowler etc a few times, he found it wasn't so much...
