    Chris, awesome job on the Caddi. You can also take just a regular beard trimmer with no guard and it’ll take care of the peeling on those seats. Also, you can find some regular old spray paint for plastics that match your color of seats, dip a corner of a rag into acetone and spray that same spot with the paint and touch up those stains. There’s a video on UA-cam of a guy who does this with his vehicles and it looks stellar considering cost and effort that goes into it. Looking forward to your future videos!

It has 109k miles not sure what cam it has but it does have one long tube headers and corsa exhaust. There'd also an 04 I'm looking at for 11k with 120k miles if this 06 falls through.
