Re: off it goes

a little bonding going on in the shop....stainless mesh bonded to the stainless trim rings, then tabs welded to hood openings and the finish product. Looks so much cleaner, they should look killer painted to match

Re: off it goes

The door gaps look amazing...around the entire door, GM failed in this area in a big way. Thanks for the update!

Re: off it goes

Wow, look at the gaps - reminded me of this old commercial with a Lexus on a rotisserie and the ball bearing rolling in the gaps?
