Thanks man! Cant wait to get the strut bar installed. Should look awesome overlaying the cover. One of the reasons i decided to go with the metallic, so the strut bar will pop out and not become just another IOM piece in the bay along with everything else thats IOM

It's honestly not as scary as it seems. The thought of applying some pressure to the paint with a machine can be frightening but after watching lots of the videos from Adams polishes on YouTube even myself being a novice at this I still was able to achieve great results. It's sure not 100% perfect but it's 100% better then when I first started off. This is a very easy process and involves no guess work plus its very rewarding when you step back and say wow!
