X2 Looks much better. That is the type of design I was hinting at by saying you could better incorporate the outside decals. Awesome work!

If you're looking for another cover I have my stock one that I could let go for pretty cheap. Just let me know if you want it. If I understand WSP means you're in West St. Paul? I go by that area on my way to my moms house which is near Prescott Wisconsin so I could drop it off sometime when I come up. No shipping charges

Let me know when you head up to your moms next and have some time on your way, we can meet up either way, yes Wsp means west st. paul, and i'm not afraid to take a drive to meet up, i assume you just shoot up 35 then shoot over to 61 and go throught hastings or cottage grove over to WI

Yeah sounds good.. lately I've gone up 35 and over on 494 though but yeah I'll let you know the next time I'm up. I'm guessing it will be within the next month. May at the latest.

Either way it's not far from me when you pass through, get the pace cars together for a photo op,

Tape, CHECK
Wet sand paper, 800, 1000, 2000 grit, check!
Degreaser/cleaner, CHECK
Black Paint, CHECK
Silver Paint, CHECK
Clear Coat, CHECK

.... No Promoter .... DANG!

Now to decide do I pay the big bucks and get the Bulldog promoter or do I cheap out and get the dupicolor.... GRRR was getting excited to start painting.....
