PAINTED UPPER GRILL-BLOCK
Here's a couple of photographs with both grill-blocks now painted to match the body color.
This one shows the difference between the plain foam and painted foam. It also shows how some of the foam flaked off when I folded the foam to fit it back in.
I've also tried out the EV Switch a couple of times in the last few days. It's really amazing for those times that I don't want the engine to come on at all. The 34 MPH top speed is a bit limiting. We have few 30 or 35 mph roads in my area, it's all 25, 45, and freeway. EV switch works GREAT in town, where it's all 25.
I did a trip the other day that was 9.5 miles total, with several stops. The engine came on once. (I hit 34 MPH) I pulled over, "rebooted", put it back into EV MODE and finished the trip, using next to no gasoline total.
