Default Finished the "Vette Nest"

Kay thinks I have too much time on my hands! Finished the "Vette Nest" in 2 weeks (including the Moto Floor installation). Thanks to Christopher for "coaching me on the attachment process".
What's your opinion? Do I need to add anything?

Excellent! Is that flooring cheaper in price than the Race Deck? Do they offer other colors?

Default Notice the reflection of the floor on the vette?

Took it on a road trip to Lake Texahoma last week and have not had time
to clean her up....NXT was applied back in November. Stuff works great!

Looking good! Where did you put all your "stuff?"

Not clear from the photos, but do you have door protection on the passenger side wall? No matter how you plan, at some time you will want to open the door while parked.

You may consider rubber dock edging available from Overton's e.g. http://www.overtons.com/modperl/over...item_num=35876 or any marine dealer to tack onto the wall where the door opens.
