Still sanding and buffing after having some touchup work done by the painter. The areas under the fenders weren't sprayed enough and we had some minor chips on the edges of the hood and trunk. Those are now taken care of. The bad news last night is I picked up the trunk ornament with the NOS plastic insert I found a few years ago. You guessed it, it fell out and cracked it, creating a small chip in the red paint and two cracks in the plastic.

I'm thinking about going to Hobby Lobby to see if they have some liquid plastic I can use to fill the chip. Anyone have any suggestions, or better yet another NOS insert?
