| Now that is a great shot of the reflection of you in the window. It does not look PINK on my computer screen. It looks more like a shade of lavendor. |

| Well, Yes I agree. The top photo looks PINK. Apparently it all depends on how the light reflects off of it. |

| That turned out looking really good especially the two tone color. I have never seen a camper top like that before, in person that is. I think that you did an excellent job of bringing it back to life. Larry :) :) |

| If I had it that is what I would do, paint the bumbers that same color as the bottom half. :) |
