Hope all is better on the home front. We know what you have been feeling the last few weeks. As for the bling, can we expect to see it in person @ Carlisle? Would like to see you! Janet's car is back together and here lately I been trying to tear up mine, but we'll be @ the fairgrounds Thursday thru Sunday. Hope to see you.

That is fantastic looking... do you have to send in the parts? how much do they charge? (for instance the door handle bezels)?
