No problem. My upholsterer is pretty good to me. He allows me to buy whatever vinyl I want and he just charges me labor to sew everything together. It's like me being able to bring a steak to the steakhouse and they cook it for me. lol

I guess I never posted the renderings I went through. Here they are. Not only does the side change, but the deck and fades change also









Final Design

I believe it was Marglass. They removed the cap and filled it with glass infused resin.

I know the feeling of making all that pretty again!!! Mine are 5200'd in as well. I bit the bullet and ordered 2 new HP Transom assemblies just because I'll be short on time when I get my AT back from paint. Got a smoking deal on them new so I'll sell my old ones which are in really good condition, but I'm just OCD. Luckily the drives were apart from being inspected and the they got refinished last week. I let my painter spray my IMCO's in silver, because I'm tired of polishing on them. With the correct prep work you'll never have a issue with paint. I'll be starting a makeover thread real soon for Remedy. It's not anywhere as much as yours though!! Can't wait to see it all back together..
