Message	really nice. Liked this color so much -- also used it for my t-belts covers in the engine bay. These were the supplies: - Bulldog Adhesion Promoter instead of Primer (both for cowl and weather stripping) - Plastikote 1006 Dark Gray for cowl - Pastikote 616 Bumper Black for vinyl trim A tip: Carefully exam the cowl that fits over the battery tray - wet it a little bit (after sanding). It gets badly pitted from battery gases over the years and all the pits may not have been taken out by the sanding. An easy fix is to get some two-part flexible epoxy used to repair bump tears and work it into the area and then lightly re-sand. Pits will be all gone.
