Kris that was great.
Where did you get the plastic chrome strips for the fender and such? And what size was it? Thanks.

Cool video! Only hope I eventually get to do as much travelling. My 2008 will have a different look soon with a trunk, and the wife and I are going to start with little trips soon.
