I will have to look and see what he had on his again,but the first stage of them will be the cloth parts of the panels will be glassed and primed an painted,the rear speakers grille will be deleted and covered over and glassed too and painted.
At some point I am gonna get brave and try my hand at building pods in the lower panels for the comps.

The garnish DIY won't be done until end of January or early February. I'll do an example piece and more than likely toss it or smash it.
Care Instructions:
You can use the following on the interiors. Wax, quick spray detailer, rubbing compound, clay bar, etc.
It’s important that you take care of the painted surface, just as if it was the paint on your car. If the surface is abundantly dirty with dust, road grime, etc. make sure you thoroughly wash it off (wet micro fiber towels) before applying any wax or rubbing compound. Failure to do so will result in damaged/swirl marks or haziness in the clear coat and possibly the paint itself.
I highly recommend using micro fiber towels to take care of and clean the surface (terry cloth towels and diapers can be used as well, but micro fibers are a lot safer on the surface). Only use clean micro fiber towels to clean the surface. Use of dirty micro fibers can damage the painted surface of the clear coat/paint and cause swirl marks or haziness in the paint.
