  1. Can’t remember taking this piece off! I had it stored with all the parts from the driver door card. There wasn’t one on the passenger side. Is it something to do with the remote mirror? Help!
  2. size = 8.375″w x 17″h i thought it was emblem size, but that might look a bit gangster on the front grille
  3. found this online doing random Monte searches down, pretty cool https://www.speedcultofficiallylicensed.com/product/monte-carlo-knights-crest/
  4. finally got to straighten the bumper alignment. Not perfect but much better then before before:
  5. Awesome detail Scott - why can’t I like or thank your posts? Is it because you’re Canadian? 😂
  6. That’s perfect Denis. Thanks for posting the photos I should have taken! In a rush as usual trying to get a bit done then get back to my other job
  7. Would any one know the thread and pitch of the two screws that hold the reversing light housing to the rear bumper? Or better still have a spare you would post to me? I sheared one off when I removed the bumper
  8. Thanks lads, just me and the insects Bob! I was at it for 8 hours straight between tack cloth and last coat of clear. Really pleased with the result and the color. Just have to sand out a few creatures and dust nibs. Unavoidable for a diy job I think. Happy Halloween!
  9. It’s really hard to tell from online photos Willie. In person I think there should be a tiny shade more purple, less green (turquoise), but when I compare my photos to google image search they are much closer in shade. Doesn’t matter though, I like it and I’m glad you guys gave it the nod of approval!
  10. I couldn't match mulsanne blue, but I spent a long time with swatches walking around the original paint in the trunk and interior. The paint system is a Spanish brand called Besa. It looks a little more turquoise than it photographs but has a lovely metallic quality that changes in different light. removed parts painted first: before clear... after clear in daylight: indoors at night:
  11. Yeah I’m learning on the job. If you don’t take the time to do it right the first time, you will the second time! I prefer to do it once. Guide coat and lots of sanding next.
