Well i finally got around to doing the blackout job on the belt line. I want to thank NAM member NUFF for providing the info as to what to use and who to get it from. It went on very easy and tool less than a hr to do. I will post some quick snap shots to show the progress . Easy deal and I encourage anyone thinking about it to give it a shot. For some reason I can't get the shots of the before and after to post here but they are in my gallery.

Randy:

The car looks great! I checked out the before and after pictures and I think there is a big difference. Hard to believe that 1/2" of black vinyl striping tape can finish off the car like it does. I thought it looked great on my JB/JB, but it looks just as good on your DS.

That is Maxi's brother " Big Red ". It has a old vette big block in it and with todays gas prices and it's 7 miles a gallon its going to stay covered LOL . It was my " toy " for many years until the mini showed up. The mini stays indoors during the really bad weather tho as I have more basic transpo for daily driving.
