Darelldd:
Yes, I'm thinking of having it painted. I find it hard to maintain the matte finish in auto parts stopping short of applying armour all. If I can avoid it, I don't apply armour all or similar type. I've been thninking abour the rocker panels too. I posted a question about this today. Haven't seen any answers yet.
With regards to the LED, do the regular bulbs still burn the lens on the 3rd brake light? If it does, I need to get details on this so I can change the bulb to LED. Are you changing the socket to accept the LED?
Thanks again.
