    yes, i know it may seem as a shock, especially given the class that i was in......1946 to Current Pontiac Full Size.....LOL a 65 year gap of cars.

    My car was the newest out of the group, the next oldest car to mine was 30 years. a 1973 Convertible Pontiac Parisienne

    anyway here is a pic of my car on the showfield



    Pic of the award (Award of Excellence)




    and Some other pics of the weekend














    Myself and another Person that is in our club she took 3rd in the 5th, 6th and 7th Generation Monte Carlo


    I had a awesome time, and hope to repeat next year!!

    As we all know, Gm uses Miles of plastic on the inside of the cars and the trucks they produce, espically in the 90's and the 2000's Most of the higher end cars that are out there have a "softer" look in the inside with more fabric or material used in place of the hard to touch plastics.

    I took the "softer" approach in the interior, so that leads us to this project.

    First off I choose this material.



    Its a non foamed backed headliner material in a Med Dark Neutral color that is a GM Spec. the Color of my bonneville is Med Neutral. So this color is slightly darker and matches the rest of the Theme in the car. The Sun Visors, the Overhead consoles, the Vanity Mirrors and the overhead oh chit handles are all a Dark Neutral Color out if other H Bodies (Lesaber and the Aurora)

    So on to the Process. Notice the Camera washes out ALOT of the color

    C pillars First

    I has a spare set so i first modified them with some Aux lights that the Aurora has near the C pillars.

    Outline


    template




    and the Cut


    Finished Product (before wrapping) I need to get the correct push switch color




    C pillars.

    Starting wrapping





    and finished all wrapped up




    Installed




    B pillars


    they needed separated first to do it correctly




    starting wrapping




    and BAM installed

    Pillar Pod. this was an extreme Pain in the Ass. there are so many bends, and it took a few days to plan this one out and get it finished.

    One of the first places glued


    and the look at that point.


    there are really no progress pics. Once you start, there is no stopping







    Holes Cut and ready for install






    Installed with the gauges
