Carter,

The top looks great, I'm color blind but my wife says the top is a different color now. :shock:

Thanks guys, having had no previous experience with this type of repair it was helpful that all of you namely; Tony, Brett, Bert and Tanner, provided guidance and gave me the confidence to complete this repair satisfactorly. It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be and your words of wisdom resulted in a successful repair you see in these photos and it's amazing how nice a couple of coats of paint can make things look. :D
Thanks again,
Carter
