Incredible Roland! Keep it going for sure. BTW...nice rabbit! We have a dwarf Netherlands.

Today I received new rear light housings. I decided to buy aftermarket plastic ones, lighter and cheaper then stock. My old ones had almost no more shiny chrome inside. I spray-painted them a few years ago with chrome effect, but it did not last long and was not really shiny either...

Fanatical! I like it!

Made some molding tools to cut the foam panel with my homemade cutter

It's a simple construction with a hot wire (made for this application) using a power supply (not on pic). Costs about 100 USD all in all

And that the result, a nice moulding that is pretty precise to use for laminating

Man, you are amazing with your patience for drilling.

I think you need a therapist - like now! :p

BTW: that steering wheel looks like a Mod 7 but in leather rather than swede/alcantra . . .

Well it looks like I found my therapy :D

Correct, Mod07 in leather

Door panels laminated and removed from moulding. Unfortunatly I had issue with parting agent, was too old...
