After days of wet sanding, cutting, and polishing, we were ready to get Westly drive-able again. We ordered a new SA Grill, LED indicators, LT Truck Mirrors, new hookups and seals from GoWesty. The old handles were sanded down and painted with POR-15 Chassis Coat. The windows were tinted by a local shop. Turns out, they made several mistakes, and the tinter claimed that it was extremely hard for him to tint the windows OUTSIDE of the car. After much bargaining, we got the shop to comp the labor, and we paid $100 for premium tints. Putting the windows in was a chore, but acting on a tip from TheSamba, we used thin nylon string sprayed with soapy water to pull the seals back into place. It took a bit of practice, but we only ended up making a minor tear in one seal. No biggie!
