Looks sharp! Hopefully you didn't have to drill into the bumper for that front plate.

It's drilled but underneath the nose, so thankfully nothing visible!

So I was a victim of a parking lot hit and run unfortunately. Someone left a nice outline of a bumper in my passenger door. Can't really see it that well from far away

But then you look closer and

Eek!

So I took it to my trusted paint shop and asked them to fix a couple other dings and do a one stage polish while they were at it. The day I picked it up from the shop, someone also came and ceramic coated it. So now it looks like a mirror

Needless to say, quite happy to have it looking good again

Installed a new gauge cluster cover and added an alcantara overlay to it. I had the overlay up for sale for a while and there were no takers so I thought may as well just use it myself. I was meaning to reupholster all of the trim pieces but that got delayed unfortunately by having to go to 4 weddings in 3 months ��

The teeth on my old one were so worn out, it would no longer stay in place
