Default Curtains Installed
Some vehicles have a 90 degree corner and some have a curved corner so that is the reason if anyone is wondering that there is a gap and not tucked to the pillar.

I'm still happy with the outcome.

The top rail was a PITA and I'm going to re-do it later on but for now no one can see it since on the inside.

Default Kit Arrival & Paint Drop-off






Got the kit finally but no fenders yet because they shipped the wrong fenders. Going to just get the rest of kit painted along with roof first. update in about 2-3 weeks!

Thanks.

LOL probably the angle of the picture but I'm more anxious about the clearance from the top if the car auto rises to ride height

Question about the curtains, Do they flap if the windows are open driving down the road? Your car is coming along nicely.

Thanks.

I never tried but I did think about that. I expect it to flap for sure if going high enough speeds.

Whaaat?? I didn't spot the curtains the first time . Interesting look, but it's not for me. Do the curtains have top and bottom rails? Should help minimize flapping when windows are open.

Yes it has top and bottom rails with a locking clip as well as the middle strap to further keep it contained.

I guess the other concern is all the time it took me to make sure the creases/folds are as perfect as I can humanly make it

Default Some paint progress








Fender was pulled when turning and not aired up all the way but now fixed.

Roof prepped for paint.

Kit seems to fit good without really much adjustments.
