Since I couldn't really tell on the computer screen what color I needed I got two; Dark Tan and Light Oak. I got the advised prep and bonding set as well. ![[Linked Image]](http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w12/tikibus1/IMAG1196.jpg) The wife was still at work, the kids were in front of the TV, and the sun was still shining so I gave it a go. Grey Scotchbrite scuffing, cleaning with cloth and water, plastic prep and adhesion promotor all went on. ![[Linked Image]](http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w12/tikibus1/IMAG1195.jpg) After color testing the best match was the light oak, color was actually pretty close, but the one spray can didn't cover the doghouse entirely, so what should I do ? Order another one or bring in the other can ? Right, I have little patience and used the other color  | | |  Re: What Did You do To your Van Today? | Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 47 newbie | newbie Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 47 | This was the first time that I had a glance at my engine as well ! Still looks pretty stock to me, even some thingies I've never seen before, lotsa wires and cables too..  ![[Linked Image]](http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w12/tikibus1/IMAG1197.jpg) Anyway; the second spray can covered the doghouse nicely but I could tell the color was way off...after dinner the thing was dry and I put it back, COLOR MISMATCH OF THE MONTH ! ![[Linked Image]](http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w12/tikibus1/IMAG1203.jpg) But I think I just tell people I wanted it this way, custom ! ![[Linked Image]](http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w12/tikibus1/IMAG1202.jpg) While I'm taking a second look at the pics it kinda looks like a port-a-potty
