Sorry Jed,


I should have been clearer. I meant do you still have fingerprints on your fingers after all the sanding it must have taken to get the clear that orange peel free.

Honestly, it didn't take me all that long to get the orange peel out with the Matrix clear. It is a nice high build clear. Buffs easily too and the price is great.

This side hasn't had much media attention. All glass is in and the vent window frames are on along with the painted top moldings and corners.

Same as passenger, minus the vent window. Repop frame broke after it was installed. I just tested the window and the welds broke on the frame. But, a new one is in it's place. Temporary rocker molding until the fender goes on.

The rear end. The &quot;non&quot; SS trim panel, and not the plastic one either.

Rear body to bumper seal with stainless staples. No glue, and I made the staples.

Minor details of the two inspection marks that I had found on the oringinal trunk weatherstip, or atleast what was left of the original.
