Yea I was thinking about those when the car was just apup & have not given it much thought with all I got going on with it. I like the idea of a personal plates like you mentioned.  Will keep'em in mind & have to decide sooner or later. I am only going to have a 5 letter choice since it will be going classic QQ so I was thinking YEEHA

Dave,

The kit is actually a stencil kit made of vinyl. Some of it gave us trouble coming off but we resolved the problems & all worked out in the end. I have still not seen it with clear on it yet & yea it's killin me. Maybe tonight!

Well.......

The bodywork will hopefully be 100% completed by the end of next weekend. I wont see the car again now until after Chryslers @Carlisle. I will grab the items I can afford to compliment the outside of the car like the rear bumper & stuff like that. I will then need to decide what are the things i can do without....money-wise--ya know? I mean I gotta get exhaust put on it too so that has priority over recovering the seats....make sense?  

To answer your question on done....I dont think it'll ever be done LOL but it will get to cruise nights this season yes. May not be 100% done done but it will make some events.
