I will do my best to photograph and video the process as I go along. I want to show everyone my work and hopefully how easy it's done. LOL!

It WILL BE an INCREDIBLE car when finished.

"Whatchu talkin' 'bout Willus?!?!?" I mean "Rick". It's already an incredible car, and has been for quite some time!!!! You are the absolute master of taking things that some would say are gaudy or over-the-top and combining them in a manner that just works so well that we just sit back and marvel at how absolutely awesome it looks!!!!!!! Anyone, and I do mean anyone, else could try to do what you do and people would have to throw up just a little in their mouth upon looking at the end result!!!!

You, my fine sir are an absolute artiste!!!!!!!!!
(For anyone who doesn't know, an artiste is stratospheric levels above a mere artist!!)

I thought that you must surely be done. Now I find myself anxious, yet again, to see pics of the results!!

Since the door covers are already sewn in a couple of pieces, it only was natural to select the inside panel to be white. I'm opting to keep the stitching simple and Red to be as inconspicuous as possible. This should be a KNOCKOUT!

Better see you there this year

Most every mod I've observed you tackle has been on the money, like you pointed out patience is extremely important.

I sincerely appreciate all the encouragement and compliments. What a bunch a great C5 enthusiasts to share the journey with.

These cars are wonderful even if it's completely stock, but for nuts like me who have the desire to make it my own and trying to take one more step further....it's a passion.

And I know there are many of you who feel the same way.

UPDATE.... The USPS is retarded and unable to deliver the package. So far the package has made the processing centers all over Texas but can't be sent to my front porch. Next time I want it to go fedex or ups. I hope it gets resolved with me actually getting my door panels or at least refunded. I'm hoping it happens next week or month.

Not very happy right now.

This is a joke....on me of course. It's addressed to me in Huntington, TX. Naturally the USPS is running short of millions of $$$$ and it's no surprise with the stellar service they do.

You hand them one perfectly addressed package.....then the clowns arrive. Now don't get me wrong, I bet 99.9% of those guys/gals do the best they can, well maybe 75% do, but all it takes is a couple of them to screw it all up.

And they come crawling up to Congress begging for more money. I wonder how much more they spent for shipping my package all around Texas?

Oh another deal is that you can't really contact anyone to tell them how to fix it. It's a joke.
