The window sweeps and door triangle seals need to be replaced. It needs a new console lid and T-top plates.

It was recently painted so all the decals need to be applied which they will do. They don't have the big bird for the hood and not sure if I will apply one.

They did not do a good job masking the side trim so it needs to be replaced. Cleaning them would be a pain.

The elbow connection to the air cleaner is missing. Probably just replace the air cleaner. Need to replace the hood liner.

It would be about $725 for parts, including the big bird for the hood.

The only out of pocket labor cost would be applying the big bird if I decide to get one. Rather have the Trim shop do that.
