IMPORTANT: The last two photos show a small ding to the paint on the passenger door a couple of inches below the chrome trim. The ding didn't go all the way down to the red base coat, only the candy-raspberry paint. Look on the left side of the door, about 4" toward center, about 2" under the chrome in the very last photo.
