    Default Small stuff...

    I didn't like the underside of the bumpers... Rough-edges, manufacturing-marks, holes. So I covered the area with a heavy-vinyl(adhesive-backed) material.

    BEFORE:


    AFTER:

    Default Interior....

    I have sent-out the first interior panel to be covered - I intend on covering all the interior plastic. For the purists... I use double-faced tape so the panels can be restored to original:

    1) NOS matching fabric across the top
    2) New carpet (to be wrapped)
    3) Top of carpet and around latch-cover to be bound/stitched

    If this works... I'll have the other panels done too!

    Everything is coming along nice, even those small details that most wouldn't even bother with... (and there is def nothing wrong with that)...

    Looks really good ..

    Is the FSJ in the background treated as carefully too ??
    I hate watching simplicity and reliability being ruined by bureaucracy and technology.
