    Rivets, the fiberglass door shells have a tendency to separate apart at the edges so rivets go in to keep them bonded.

    It's done, wasn't as cheap as I'd originally intended, but having a full month away from the car to relax and de-compress on vacations was worth the extra expense. He cut me a break so it looks like I have my first sponsor now. Also seeing just how damn well the paint came out, tempted to just leave it as-is and run no plastidip. Not sure yet...

    Yep; told him I only wanted rust protection, in turn he said he wants me to run his sticker and have the nicest looking car in CMC.

    Really having second thoughts about coating it in camo green plasti-dip, looks too good as is although Im sure Glenn doesn't like being confused for me every time he has an off. Maybe some plasti-dip or vinyl accents are in order. Did gloss black since that was the original color and I wouldn't spend months lamenting over any other color choice...

    The car looks great Pranav! Now you have a blank canvas for some cool vinyl graphics. No need for PlastiDip, just don't hit anything and the finish will last a long time :-)

    Nobody will recognize my car the next time you see it.
    It will have 4 tires on the ground.
