Well today my baby got a bath and then we took a trip to my daughters for dinner. I figured I would take a few photo's to post on here. I am not a professional photographer as you can see and they were taken with my phone so understand if they are not top quality. The only mods I have have done are add a bra, other than that I don't feel she needs any. Shes pretty just the way she came. Note the stain on the seat (these things really need better cup holders lol.

Well today I cleaned Rosie up and while I was doing this I got to thinking about the pics Opelmania posted here. So I decided that after 11 years it was time to do a little modding to Rosie's interior. I have posted some pics of my additions and I'm looking forward to any feedback. Opel, I hope you didn't have that idea patented LOL.

Not me. I hope it isn't patented! If it is, someone is gonna make a ton of $$$$$!

Looks great! Uh oh! Looks like you've got the disease. Mine started with painting the factory wheels and then tinting the windows. Now my list is still growing! Can't wait to see what else you do with Rosie!

Well today I finished up the interior, it took a while to get the center dash out as I had to fabricate a tool to remove the stereo but after that it was a breeze. Paint went on well after I cleaned everything with alcohol, although the color isn't an exact match. I painted a paint stick and held it up to the car before I started and it looked good. I guess the paint dries a different color on plastic. Oh well, it isn't off to much and I just love it.
