Seats done, fender fixed, grill painted

Well, I finally fixed the dented fender from my wheel falling off mishap....got some longer studs, so it won't be happening again!

Got the seat back from the upholsterer...turned out nice. Had the inserts for the doors done with the lighter Grey as well.

Since I had the front end apart to fix the fender, I decided to paint the grill a few shades darker Grey and I like the way it turned out...more aggressive looking.

Also installed some insulation on the underside of the hood which made a big difference in engine heat transfer to the hood, pretty much eliminated engine sound from outside and also gave the hood that "quality" thud sound when closing it instead of that "tinny" sound. As I said in a previous thread...it's definately function over form, but it looks alright.
