So for the door handle well/pit. All you got to do was heat up the vinyl and push it in ?

 

[RIPnFX]

Thanks. Yes, heat the vinyl up to 140-160 degrees and gently pushing the vinyl in from center to the holes. And that spot needs 94 primer as well.

Wow looks so sick, great job man. Def needs a drop now

Thanks. Working on the drop as well, maybe won't happen until next spring.

^^^ Thanks everyone.:smile (2):

Thanks. Nah, I don't really care about door jabs, so I left them as is.

Great job, just curious how long did the entire process take?

About a week.3 for the big parts, another 3 lower trim, moldings etc.1-2 days Door handles, mirrors,window trim etc... Now I would probably do it in couple days without lower trim.
