    Sittin with som dubbleside tejp, when bolting they has to be a little more apart to get the right tension.
    Maybe the should be turned 180 degrees , have to try out the posision later .

    Those decklid latches put it into "too many trinkets" territory.

    I think once the trim is back on it will completely fix that.

    I'm glad you tried. You have talent and make nice parts. But just don't start showing off. I like to use the KISS method.

    Went back to "keep it simple" today and begin with a handle instead, I think it could turn out better.

    :)The latches are cool but make a cover that encapsulates the spring configuration part and use them as hood latches >;):cool::D
