Black is both the most satisfying, as well as often infuriating colours to work on.

Thanks Dave! I fully agree. Black is a great colour to work on but I am glad I don't own a black car! I will end up beating old ladies in parking lots

Yes you are right, we are also planning to use plastic front components on the Joule electric car for improved pedestrian safety. However, this car even had plastic / composite rear fenders as well

Thanks calypso! Yes, the car did look worse for wear after the first wash down. Luckily it came out looking good as new again!
