Had an old Columbia jacket that something gluey was stuck and I couldn't remove it. The DMC patch did the job fine... And it's even looks like a standard release..



Roger Moore look on my facia was the next thing to work on


All straight...


So there was nothing keeping me from installing and aligning the fascia onto the delo.
Yes, I finally got a face on her:)


Along with the clear lens angel eyes she has a fresh look...

Worked on the external trim pieces...
Another poorly made DMCH reproduction.
Both rubbing strips were purchased from them. The upper one has a paper strip over the double sided tape and the lower one a vinyl one.
The upper one is trash....


So I had to remove those and apply the new 3M gel double sided tape that is a hell of a strip holster.


Cleaned both surfaces with acetone first


And applied...


Drivers side done
