I appreciate it. I have had them in the past. Just not at the moment. If I find another, I will let you know. |

I still need to shape the headlight trim a little better. Its not really in place at the moment, since I still have the motor disconnected, and needing to take out again for servicing. |

The bag again, with more yellowing. By the way, the zipper does fully extend, I just didn't pull it down since there is no bag in it yet. |

Not really. The risk of damaging the hood by trying to heat and shape it is too high. |

Yes. You can still find the plain white hood for sale from time to time. The pink would be hard to match though. |

Another of the base. You can see the scuffs here. The bumper is relatively nice for the scuffs on the side. |

Rear. I really wonder why they put the bottom snap in because its almost impossible to stretch the bag that far. |

The awesome bag. I like the wide look of the 65. These seem so slim compared to it. |

The base. It appears that the paint was sprayed on thin in places. I can see some metal in the deeper parts of the base. |
