for a guy that started off wanting white that is a big change . It looks awesome, you have picked a great combanation of colors and who ever ddid the work has done a great job.

Yeah, I figured eventually someone would bring up the fact that I was originally wanting to stay OEM colors. But I think I made the right choice.

The guy doing the work is good, but very slow..... But I knew that going in and figured good, slow work would be better than quick, so-so work. But he did screw up my engine cover, but he is fixing it. He sewed the "flying V" logo backwards, so it was viewable from the cockpit instead of the transom. Hopefully he can get that fixed ASAP. Then I think the hold up is the embroidery work on the glove box and seat tops.

Once completed I am having a cover made out of sumbrella material that will go over the engine cover and snap to the existing buttons. It will be done in primary silver and will have the "flying V" done in charcoal. Basically it will be a cover to protect the sunpad/engine cover from damage when at the beach and rafted off. Plus it will keep it nice an dirt free. The cover will have the same pattern as the sunpad. Of course I will post pics of that when done...... But that is getting way ahead of myself.

Again, it needs to sit out in the sun to loosen up a bit to then level out the foam. It is a bit lumpy right now....

It looks really nice, great choice of color.

Also I in the pics, the rear bench bottom cushions look they way they do becasue I was stepping on them right before taking the pic, so the foam had not had a chance to return to shape....

Some misc, parts back from powdercoat. I am not super happy with the quality, but it will have to do for this season. Will probably have all redone over winter (season is too short to have it all redone now...)
