    Rear hatch install

    When I got the glass replacement window, the only regret I had was that it didn’t have the rivet look which I always thought was cool.
    So I took my window to a paint brush artist, and had the rivets painted on.
    Came out pretty cool I think.

    Yeah, I'd be worried it would come off somehow. Sunlight damage, rain water, road grime etc. Is there a clear coat over it?

    Have to be careful not to scrub or scratch.
    I have pondered putting clear bra material over the black border if that doesn’t distort the look.

    John,

    Just noticed this in picture one ... they spelled my name wrong on the spare tire ... I use 2 r's ... Garry, not Gary! HeeHee! Wonder why Gary's name is on your tire?

    Aren’t you (spare) tired of people spelling your name wrong!?
