Damn weather! Lol it never fails, big bear always gets a last ditch effort from winter right around mothers day. Every year... we are due for a little bit tomorrow and sunday and then a little more next weekend. I hate it! Lol

Dude it's ridiculous! The only thing benefiting from how much rainfall we've had in the past two weeks is my lawn, lol. And the forecast for this area SUCKS! Unfortunately for me the detached garage at this house is too small for me to fit the beast inside it to work on it! Thankfully our situation here is only temporary as my wife and I are renting this house until such time as we can afford to buy our own family home...

These side pieces look to be color matched or maybe that's how the Denali is looks a lil lighter then your color but gives you an idea how it looks @Red Rocket

Don't feel bad, my beast sits outside too! The garage sits at the end of an oddly angled driveway so I can't even line the beast up straight to park her inside

Thanks @95escahoe that looks pretty good! I'm actually going to try and color match my sail panels to the darker upper dash color to match the look that your Esky has. I think that'll be sweet looking!

I just figured out not too long ago that mine are two different colors. Drivers side matched to top dash (dark), passenger side matched to the rest of it (light).
