Just made a date with Xtreme yesterday for the whole conversion (headlights $3,500, tail lights $2,500) in August into Sept. as it takes 3 full weeks to do both. You can actually stay in the coach now instead of their apt., unless you'd rather not. Got to have a "new coach" for the GrandVention.  :))

PM me if you'd like details as to why I had a date for the job with FOT (on a Friday afternoon) but canceled it the following Monday. With Xtreme, you know exactly what the schedule is, & when things will get done, + they really are the best at it. May cost a bit more but worth it.

Dani,
Staying in the coach is a good choice.  It is your place. Lots to do in NAC, look for the wlkimg and bike trails through the parks starting at Tucker's Woods. You will like the headlights and the tail lights.  The extra set of higher up lights they added for me were only a ouple hundred extra buck.  Great for visibility over your toad.  We did the steps too. For everyday functionality they were a great addition.

Yup for the roof paint too.  Maybe next time through for me.  We are stored inside so not as imperative.  Also the storage box inside the dr side bay at the very back.  I just have to have more room for stuff.  And a nice resonator at Bernd's too.

Please post a picture of how the "extra set of higher up lights" look on the coach.

Here's a couple of pics of our "face lift" from Xtreme. Those folks are the best. I can't say enough about their services and quality of production. A bonus: I can drive at night...and see down the road!

Paul Yasbeck's already done my roof + I got new paint (decals stripped & painted on, copied the original factory brochure) less than 2 years ago...this coach is also stored inside.....sun never hits her for the winter unless I'm out.....now saving my pennies for FBP....what the heck! As my crazy mom likes to say "damn the cost, throw another cat to the gold fish!"  :))
