No more decals to worry about. So when the time comes..........


Taking your advice and the shop is painting the decals on. I should have it back within the next two weeks.

Here is the finished paint job. There are no decals in these two pictures, only paint.

I’m not planning to put the Keystone Decals back on, just going to have paint I think. That way I avoid fading in the future.

Next up, new tires going on tomorrow.

Nice, looks good! Body shop just repaint it? Interesting my clear is holding up well (have to get it waxed soon), but my decals are peeling off around the edges- mainly the "Premier" logo. I'll try to get a picture tomorrow.

I have to say the same.....it looks great. Who in the world would want to put decals on that and then have to worry about them? Leave a good job alone! On the other hand.....what are you going to do about LP? I know you want to maximize the view of the new paint but won't you need LP sometime in the future......

Lol, yeah this was just picked up and parked in my driveway, tanks and batteries have not been put back on yet. The front cap is brown, and I thinking maybe a black propane cover might look nicer than the white one I already have?
