Sadly, I've seen worse, drive across Florida in the height of "love bug" season.

Now that's ugly. Mine looked almost that bad last week, almost but not quite.
It took me almost an hour to clean it after I got back from the car wash. I thought the car wash would do the job but no dice.

I'll look into a lock kit.
It came with a few bungee cords and a pair of clip on clips same type used on tarps to add a place to tighten things down.

I have a Grommet Press that I use to make Banners and such, I can always add brass or stainless steel grommets if needed.

Bodyshop said to call them on Friday, Hopefully they get the parts I dropped off today painted by then.

Just looked at your pics again A&P and you already have the grommets for a lock down cable on your cover, they're at the bottom about 18" back from your mirrors, so you're good to go.

Yup, thats were I hooked up and slung the long bungee cord under the car.

Pics were taken Before I bungee'd it up.

But I have a Commercial Grade Grommet Press that I use when making Signs and Banners, so I can always add more if I wanted.

Just need a steel cable now, I have a spare Master Combination Lock laying around here. Keep it from walking off in the Night.

Can't wait to get the Front Visor and the Rear Door Stone Chip Guards back from the Paint Shop. Cost Less to just have them do it, than me buying the Materials and doing it myself.
