Probably. It’ll be easy to cover if I just re-black it.

But, who knows. I have some time to think about it, but I’d like to do it ASAP.

LOL… “minor” issues…

they are a fantastic car for the money… just have some short comings, like thin paint, and a trashed suspension from the aussies packing them up for the boat ride.
