i didnt use any clear and probably should have given it some more coats of die, if i did it again it would probably be perfect cause u get used to how thick u paint it thats why i got a practice one, but it hasnt faded or chipped at all since ive put it in

yea the whitewall would be good, but no that practical, coloured walls last alot longer ive been told, but might not have the same effect. how are you going with the roof lining conversion? there is a fella on here that has done the same thing, ill see if i can find his thread.

How hard was it to put the calais door trims on.. I would love to change the thin berlina ones for thicker ones.
