Damnit! I was getting into my xB, passing a couple 12" sheets of 1/4" acrylic through to place on the passenger's seat and ended up with a nice gouge on the right silver piece of the steering wheel and a couple scratches on the bottom right of the shifter column. I guess I'm going to have to sand & paint those areas sometime soon... and I recall reading that the steering wheel pieces don't come off easily.

that is a bummer Eric...

you could always order the leather covered steering wheel then you would have an extra one for parts

I know the feeling man that sucks. Many times I have scratched soft materials on cars trying to load things into them.

It just sucks that I created a new project while getting something for another project. Now I'm getting projects stacking up (w/ at least two more on the way soon) and no time to do them! LOL

...if I hadn't already taken several hours off this month for my son's needs, I'd take a Friday to try and get caught up!

You don't have to tell me about projects piling up. I got projects still on the work bench for the Jetta, yet I am planning on trading it in and buying an xB hehe.

I still think about all the stuff left undone on the tC & Eclipse, neither of which we have anymore. I scare myself thinking I need to do this, that and the other to get the Eclipse ready to sell... oh whups, it's gone :lol:

what color you gona paint?

 

[Eric]

I don't know... I'm thinking of maybe going gloss black to match the stereo, or maybe I'll try to match the silver first. I like the look of the gloss black on the inner part of the shifter that I saw on the Rumion... unfortunately, the scratch is on the outside area.
