One suggestion I have for you guys is to request a price for it non-painted and get local estimates to have it done. One of the only complaints I've heard about these covers (other than the leaky lock) is the paint bubbling up on some, kinda like the cover has acne. The explanation I've heard is that the fiberglass may not have cured 100% before the cover was painted. I've never had a problem with mine because the original owner did just as I described. He painted it locally. Maybe it was a fluke batch but just something to consider. Maybe you can save a few bucks, maybe not. Just a thought :top:
