I've got some black bumper cover moulding trim on the way! Got it from an awesome guy that lives about an hour from me, has multiple G projects going (trying to get him to join), and sells it for half of what a well known G body site sells it for (y).

I know its an oil free compressor.

But just for the future never lay an oil compressor on its side. oil will get into the tank and if you ever uses it to paint you will get fish eyes everywhere

Thanks for the heads up, that's part of the being jacked how it came part. When I walked onto my porch that is where it was, I get the laying it down to hide it if they put it behind the wall to the right of it but left it right at the steps for everyone to see it sitting there on its side to boot.

Got my bumper cover trim. That's the beauty of being close to the seller distance wise.

Hopefully I can get it installed soon, but it will likely be a week or two before I get to work on the Cutlass.

Nice! Time's on your side with this one,stretch that stuff,out warm it up,try and get the waves out from being rolled up.it'll make the tape far more pliable and make it easier going on.i always hit the tape side with a heat gun before peeling the backing off.

Finally got the compressor installed, but there were some scratches and the plastic cover was bent making it hard to put the air cleaner in so now I will have to do it all over again when the replacement comes :blam: I would say the replacement will have the same issues but we shall see.

Hopefully this bad boy is shipping to me this week, didn't really want gold but sounds like there will be quite the wait for a black one. Now the question is should I paint it to get rid of the gold :puke:
