You Dont even want to know How many Times I have said your name in the last week ! And was not encourging words either. All I can say is that if I knew it was going to be that much of a night mare I woulda left it @ your house.... At this point it has broken My Give a F.... And I must say to those who do it, all the power to ya and I have much respect for you. I can think of alot of other shti jobs that I will gladly do instead of this. Sanding was not fun so to make my life a whole easier I used that grinder with a 35grit disc

Ohhh - it looks like you did it the hard way. Always lay in your reinforcement from the back side.

Ya me knows that now. But I dont like that resin and mat very much . Ends with air pockets and stuff smears and makes a real mess, So ya I know better now. But still dont change the fact I not intersted in fiberglass hahaha... But the hard way for sure.

So after the sanding was all done, I took first try at putting on some vinyl... Not to hard to do until we got to the dash .. heat gun, lotsa patience and some bad words again aimed at Don ... Shoulda made it a bit different so there was not so many contours to fight with . Good thing My wife was willing to help or I woulda ripped it all of and get some one else to do it. But she has alot more patience and care to make it look good. After a good 5 hrs and a gallon of contact cement this is what it come out like. Still needs alot to finish it , so maybe tonight will try to get more done. After that was done and burning the midnight oil, Had to wire up the new gauges and speakers for it.

So went back at it after supper last night , and burned some more midnight oil.... Got the vinyl fixed up as much as could , and put alittle paint on the roof , and after work I get my spanard fast eddie to spray up baffles with the gun , I not a painter by no means and dont want runs and misses etc on them. Will roll the floor tonight and or tomorow night with bed liner

Also Swapped out the baby A300 for the A600 to get some more front end, Them drivers are loving that juice and crave more I am sure.
