    Looks good! Did you use vinyl dye, or is that parking brake cover wrapped?

    Yes the ding in the tail light is from an off road adventure...

    Blasted winter takes all the fun out of owning a hot rod!

    Happy new year everyone!!!

    I sanded the texture off of it and used SEM Camel paint. It's the closest thing I could find to match the tan interior. It's good paint too.

    Looks great! SEM is the best for that application. Prep is really the key too. Nice work!

    Got rear ended. Very very carefully. Things I noticed in my first car-accident:
    1) People can be very polite in such a situation. I stressed the fuck out, even with the very limited damage. Didn't get the owners reg. number, though got her phone-number and she texted me her reg. number and the name of her insurance company.
    2) My head hit the seat, not the rollbar
    3) What felt like a hard hit almost didn't show

    you very well may have damaged your bumper even though it doesn't show. You might want to get that replaced. If You get hit again in the same spot it could do serious damage to you and the car.
