Dub Show 2009 Was a Blast and alot of fun,
Our car club got alot of Recognition at the show and alot of people took pics of our cars and different company vendors like perrilli talked to our car club president about hooking us up with tires.
I didn't win this year, maybe some day I will at a show like this but the Nice Charger our Car Club President has took Best Dodge and a big Trophy home, that was cool at least one of us one.
I did win in one way, The Nascar Booth was setup at the show and the Guys from Phoenix International Raceway loved my car asked who's car it was and then I started showing the car to them and they love the flags and the racetrack around the trophies and they liked the black and white and he said he never seen a Hendricks Decal like mine. They gave me their info and would like me to take my car to nascar events and other events at PIR so we will see what happens. They said at some events I could Take the car club to show a group of cars. That made my day and I have been dreaming of something like this to happen, can't believe it still, He said he give me pit passes and tickets to the races, Pretty Awesome!
It was alot of fun and I saw Ice Cube Perform live and alot of the car scene from AZ was there so I knew like half the people. It was a cool experiance.

Just checked out the latest pics. Great work Patrick. Nice original idea of having your info board over a background picture of Dale Jr.
Did you have to remove the entire door panel to remove the oval pieces?

Thank You Taz and all 
I did the reader board the morning before the show having vinyl stickers made and then putting them on the frame myself,
On the doors you don't have to take the whole panel off, my interior friends only had to unscre the screw holding the door handle in and they cut the fabric to a good size and use a piece of cardboard to keep the spray of the glue from getting on the rest of the door, they spray interior glue on just the oval area and lay the fabric over it and use a putty knife to get the fabric inbetween the door and oval piece and then cut the excess off. its easy for them to do and doesn't take very long and is not expensive to do. Its a nice touch on the doors that is just right and smooth looking.

I'm not crazy about everything inside my Monte being all black. I was thinking about using some vinyl dye or something on those oval pieces. Was thinking about red.
I don't want to do any part of the dash. I was thinking about doing the oval pieces on the doors, and the oval pieces in the back seat in red. I also considered re-doing the leather seats two tone. Red leather in the center of each seat, with black around the edges. Kind of like how I had the seats done in my Grand Am. But re-upholstering the leather seats (front and back) is too expensive for me right now.
