thanks for the opinions guys, I would LOVE to do #2 but that white color has me thinking
like enzo said, if i clear it, im worried it might yellow and look ugly, if i dont clear it and has a matte finish, it'll probably stain from oil etc. etc.
i wont have nothing to lose since i got the cover for free i want it to look good in the end :p
