I think the same way here. Just let the professionnals
handle this as I did when I made my pop-top
transplant. It is basically the only way to ensure a
good resale value... JUST IN CASE! Cause I don't ever
want to be in that position, but you never know what's
gonna happen next.

My van looks sooooooo good! I painted it the same
color as the rest of the van, in grey. Just awesome!
You cannot regret that!
