Yours turned out amazing! I am lucky that mine didn't fit, or I probably would have kept it and dome something like you did.
My paint is quite dull in places... I guess I'm off to Autozone. Any affordable recomendations? To be honest, I was going to call it a 'patina' until you mentioning how well it cleaned up.
Thanks!
