    Looks good! I'm not entirely sure of the purpose, it's not hidden & stuff inside could damage the outside. A coat of bed liner spray should prevent that, but don't put heavy or pointy things in it.

    Yo Dante where's that follow up video? I think I can figure it out but you had clips of you doing it. Ya the Rob one is over engineered and over priced. It also is heavy from what people say. This design is simple and exactly what I want to do. I think I will spray some bed liner in it first. I think I will add a lock. If you put links to the parts it would be appreciated.

      It’s been about two months and I have noticed the shine is gone. The rich full darkness that was initially there isn’t anymore. It still looks good though in my opinion, definitely lasting longer than a few weeks. Probably going to try Toaster Grease Next time. I’ve also only washed the car 2/3 times since I applied. Hope this helps!

    Congrats on your new Element! I've recently discovered a new found love for my 2007 EX and had no idea about the Honda Element community across the US. And how coveted the Element is - these vehicles are an acquired taste if you know what I mean. Been slowly replacing parts here and there, along with the upkeep of course. My E is all stock, I'm the OG owner of the car so it's essentially my baby lol. I'm at 157k on it. These vehicles are hard to kill and they take a beating. Good luck on your journey.
