Hopefully your planning on showing us the 'rebuild'..

Turned out sweet!!!</TD></TR></TABLE>
thanks. I'll post up most of the rebuild, some parts of it must remain secret...

removed tape and plastic, cleaned it up and rolled it into the driveway.

pic was taken approx. 100 ft away from the car.


The hatch was directly underneath the filter and the windshield was about 6' away from the inlet of the exhaust fan. fan is capable of sucking up 800 cfm and it helped out BIGTIME.


Looks grayish blue from certain angls.




i really appreciate the positive feedback.

Great job! That looks better than some local body shops by me. We all really appreciate you taking the time to document your progress by taking all those photos.
