RE: door panel appearance question

[Wayne Huseby <wchuseby@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Tom and Jason
Thanks for your input. Good points to check out. I have not taken the 
panels off yet, no place in the dead of winter to do that. I do have to 
take it back to the body shop for some screw ups they did earlier so 
maybe will have them check it out or later next spring when my garage is 
built. Something is definitely different between the drivers side and 
passenger side. Passenger side is spotless and black as when it came 
from the factory.
I will keep you posted with my results.
