Dx3 I knew someone was going to get me for the blue shifter lol...
Dont worry there is a method to the madness, i'm planning on wrapping it in black vinyl.
The repairs on the engine delayed that.

looks like you may also have had the above windshield rust as well. My windshield was replace previous to my ownership. They must have scratched the paint under the trim when replacing it, a few spots have developed.

my car had a nasty section of rust above the front windshield.
After removing the windshield we realized there was a BIG A$$ hole in the sheet metal. Years of hot & cold cycles of the weather chewed through the top layer, Luckily it wasn't so bad, & we treated it with rust inhibitor. We then used this bondo that dries hard as steel; you can see a can of the product on top of my car.

Yeah the 1st pics were taken with a disposable camera, I didn't have a digital camera yet, & no I didn't paint those areas. I saved money by leaving them out, I will paint them later.

the only thing about it i dont like is that fact that it is blue.
but since it's probably aluminum(?) and just has blue paint on top of it, you can probably remove the blue paint and reveal the bushed aluminum under it.
i've actually been wanting to have the same set up, but last time i checked for those shift *****, there we'rent any left..

The mod bug is back again...
I saw a few videos of carbon fiber vinyl & started wondering if it would look good on the roof of our SC's. I've seen a few guy's rocking this vinyl on various panels. All I want to do is use it on the roof for a different look.
