Opps, I more meant the handles and headlamp rings (and bumpers too). I remember your poll post about removing the body trim. Oh, and did you keep the factory windows? Guess all of this would be answered soon with the finished pictures.

Vincent, the color is 2003 PT Cruiser Electric Blue Pearl (Yes there is red pearl in the mix). Good eye!

James, the door handles, headlamp rings & bumpers will all be body color. As far as the windows go, I decided to keep the vent windows. I sent all the chrome window bits to the powder coaters. They are now black like rubber.

Richie August 12th 2003 09:37

Very nice color, can't wait to see a type 4 in the back and a nice set of wheels. Won't be long, I guess!

Cheers,
Richard

Richie, thanks for the compliments. But what is wrong with the Boxter wheels I already have? :D

Richie August 12th 2003 10:02

:o Big Oops, Sorry, nothing wrong with those. I even wished I had them!
Guess I was a bit distracted by that engine. ;)

Cheers,

vujade August 29th 2003 10:18

Well guys, I am picking my car up from the headliner shop today & taking it back to the body shop to have the final bufffing done.
then we will put it all back together. :D

zen August 29th 2003 16:30

that's good news. so are you shelling out the $50 a day for a trailer or how are you transporting? i am considering raising the front end and jamming a tow bar under mine.

vujade August 29th 2003 16:48

fortunately my body guy David has a buddy that has a tow dolly and he let us use it to bringthe car over the other day and bring it back to the body shop today.

vujade September 29th 2003 10:26

Just talked with my body guy this morning and it looks like I will be taking delivery of my car next weekend.

He told me to come by Saturday so that we could put it back together :D

NO_H2O September 29th 2003 15:43

Cool:D Is your time line looking good for "The Jam". Zen's is getting compressed but I still think it can be done.

zen September 30th 2003 08:33

that's good news joe!!!!!! looks like you should be able to make it.

i am at a standstill at the moment, but still have my fingers crossed.

vujade September 30th 2003 09:19

Yes it is good news.
I ordered everything else i needed from the real source last week & it shoud be here today or tomorrow.

Btw Zen I went with the Black carpet kit too :D

vujade October 10th 2003 08:46
