Almost looks like it could have come from the factory that way, Keith. I had a buddy that raced stock cars and he once said he could work all week on a suspension piece and no one noticed. But if he hung a fender, everyone said it looked like he'd been kicking butt. This is one of those big milestones that tend to overshadow those "million other things". Keep plugging away!
