My name is Earl, and I have a Stainless Steel bolt fetish =)

What about an e46 trunk release button? The GM one that was used in just about every car they produced for 15 years is big and dumb looking.

It looks the most like a compact =P

you should probably scrape a little of the paint off where the tires are drawn to make it seem lower.

ASSPROOF Auctions?

Many Many moons later, I finally found the time to finish this up. I hope this helps to keep that fire under your ass lit long enough to finish before the up coming season.

Are you going to get that button custom made in stainless steel?

Progress over this past week has mostly been chipping away at undercoating removal by hand. I have the center portion stripped all the way to the gas tank area and half of a floorboard/rocker completed. 

I did get some time to remove the fabric covered sunroof shuttle so that I can take the headliner, A pillars, shuttle, and drivers seat to the upholsterer. 

I also got my front subframe, crossbar, fuel line cover and window tracks back from Zach

[Earl]

I cleaned the sunroof tracking on Saturday (no pictures of that as my phone died before I finished) and removed the side pieces from the sunroof to replace them. 

I also cleaned the underside of the sunroof and noticed the edge of the vinyl sheet is peeling up. I'm not quite sure what would be the best thing to adhere it back to the sunroof. I had though about replacing it but I don't see it listed as a part in the diagrams on realoem.com

Maybe if you weren't streaming live you're phone wouldn't have died 

[Earl]

Exactly what killed it haha. It doesn't enjoy streaming music and doing that video at the same time.

[patsbimmer1]

The video was useless.  You weren't even responding to my comments!

[Earl]

lol I was trying to get my Mr. Clean on=P

[KaiserRolls]

Spray adhesive perhaps? 3M super 90?

[Earl]

That'd work great if the damn nozzles didn't spray absolutely everywhere lol

Control your nozzle Earl.

[Earl]

When I did my headliner, I couldn't believe how that shit just flies out of there lol

[Jdesign]

Gotta make sure you keep the nozzles clean after each use!

[Earl]

I did lol

[KaiserRolls]

Spray it onto a surface and then use like a bonding spreader or something

[Earl]

Wouldn't contact cement or something of that nature make more sense then?
