| Sharp car, but polishing the trim would make it really pop. | |

Dont change a thing,the way the trim matches the spokes in your wheels is GREAT.Just how long did it take to do the paint work,looks like a lot of work and it really shows.Awesome looking wagon and welcome to the group. |

appreciate the compliments-i like what im seeing on this forum. interior is royal blue leather and is in pretty good shape but i could use some front door panels. trim was easier then you would think shes still a work in progress for sure |

| Man, I should do the trim that way on my next wagon! Is that a vinyl overlay, or paint + clear? | |

| Thanks again guys. The trim is paint + clear. Easier to do than you might suspect. paint the trim your base color, let it dry, then choose your darker color for the grain and either do light brush strokes then drag a dry cloth over it very lightly, or do it all by rag, experimenting will get you where you want to go, then of course let it dry and clear it! I have to confess that i didn't do it personally, a friend did and perhaps he just made it look easy haha. in any case i can provide his info should you want to do the same kinda thing. Happy Wagoning! |

| Now, if someone told me that they were gonna do that... That color. 2 different wood colors. Wood grain wheels. I would have told them it would look like Hell. Don't do it! OMG it'll be HIDEOUS! But, you sir, have somehow pulled it off. That looks Fan-Freakin'-Tastic! My hat's off to you. Nice work. And a Hell of a bold jump in a fairly bland woodgrain world! I totally diggit! | |

I retract that statement. I did not see the woodgrain on the wheels, I thought they were black. Very nice. | |
