Thank you Dennis. I will be touching up the WLF with black modeling
paint. I may bead the back edge with some thin black leather cord to
help tone down the 'bright gray on aluminum' look. (or maybe use the
black paint.)
I like the front better too.
Be well,

back. You might put a little glossy black fingernail polish on that
chipped corner of the WLF.
I just watched a Automat with red leather sell on ebay for about the same
as they sell normally. So I don't think you lower the value that way.. if
that matters. I would love to have black lizard skin on my 2.8F but the
letherette is in perfect condition so I can't bring myself to do it.
I just got an FX (then had to send it in for repair) that has brown cow
hide on it and I notice it scuffs very easily. Though it also polishes
back up very well with shoe polish. I might be more tempted to cover it
in black lizard than the F.
